Among those, more than 80 per cent said this was mostly or partly for financial reasons.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMany of those participating in the survey also reported having poorer mental health than they did when they were aged 20, and said they were very concerned about housing and climate.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOf the 25-year-olds who do not live with their parents, less than one-eighth are the owner\/occupier of their own home; three-fifths are renting privately; and a further eight per cent are renting from a family member.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe results of this survey again highlight the utter sense of hopelessness and despair felt by young adults in Ireland today. For the hundreds of thousands stuck living in their childhood bedrooms, the dream of owning \u2013 or even renting \u2013 an affordable home has become increasingly out of reach.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cA change of Housing Minister will not make a difference to their lives unless it is accompanied by a radical reset of policy. The new programme for government, which is sparse on detail and contains the same tired and failed formulas, hardly inspires confidence that things will change for the better under this administration.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cGiven that the last government undershot its own housing targets for 2024 by a considerable distance, the new coalition\u2019s claim that it will build 300,000 homes over the next five years will understandably be met with scepticism by the generation locked out of housing.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><em>January 27, 2025<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A new report from the Central Statistics Office (CSO) provides some worrying insights into how the housing crisis is impacting young adults in Ireland, according to Social Democrats TD Rory Hearne. \u201cThe latest results from the \u2018Growing Up in Ireland\u2019 project show that 69 per cent of 25-year-olds still live with their parents.
