It was found that the proportion of people in their early 30s living on a lease on a deposit basis is decreasing, and the proportion of monthly rent or self-residential housing is increasing. It is interpreted that young people who are economically able to afford to own their own homes, but young people who are not are driven to monthly rent.

On the 27th, the National Statistical Research Institute of the National Statistical Office published a report titled "Comparative Study by Cohort on the Implementation of the Life Process: Marriage, Birth, and Housing." The report analyzed a cohort (a group of people with common characteristics) of the National Statistical Office's Population and Housing Census, which is conducted every five years.

As a result of the analysis, when those born between 1970 and 1974 were in their early 30s, the monthly rent residence rate was 17.3%. This rate increased to 19% during the period between 1975 and 1979 when those born in their early 30s were in their early 30s. The rate of monthly rent in the early 30s continued to rise to 20.8% born in 1980-1984 and 21.3% born in 1985-1989.

At the same time, the proportion of people in their early 30s who became landlords also increased. The proportion of self-residential residents in their early 30s was 48.1% for those born in 1970-1974; 46.6% for those born in 1975-1979; 51.1% for those born in 1980-1984; and 49% for those born in 1985-1989. On the other hand, the proportion of lease on a deposit basis, which was a representative type of housing for beginners in society, is on the decline. The rate of lease residence in the early 30s was 30.5% for those born between 1970 and 1974, 29.8% for those born between 1975 and 1979, 23.7% for those born between 1980 and 1984, and 26.2% for those born between 1985 and 1989.

The problem of lease on a deposit basis fraud is also likely to have affected this change in the type of residence. According to Real Estate Planet, the proportion of monthly rent transactions in the city's row and multi-family housing rental market last year exceeded half to 54.4%. Monthly rent outpaced the proportion of jeonse transactions. Unlike jeonse transactions, which have been on the decline for three years, monthly rent transactions have increased for six consecutive years.
