Summary/Abstract: The article presents the results of research on the housing situation of young married couples in Elbląg district. In the study author modified a questionnaire used in the work of J. Korniłowicz (2003), where the indicator method proposed by Adam Andrzejewski (1987) was used. The aim of this paper was to analyze the housing situation of young couples and their self-assessment. The results show a relatively high self-assessment of housing condition safter the wedding, which do not correlate with polish objective indicators. The most common form of residence after the wedding was, in the opinion of the respondents, to live in their own flat (including mortgaged a property), to live with the parents and to start building a house.
