All Australians are spending more of their incomes on housing than in the past, but low-income households are feeling the pinch most.

Affordable, Accessible, Appropriate housing for older Australians
This presentation looks at the major issues relating to housing options of affordability, accessibility and appropriateness, for older Australians.
Affordable: Most retirees have adequate housing; higher net transfers not viable
Accessible: Storm clouds are ahead for retiree home ownership and renting
Appropriate: Downsizing is wanted, but harder than it should be
