Summary/Abstract: In Bulgaria, the problem of affordability of housing is not the subject of a serious discussion among scientific circles, unlike other countries, and it is an important topic for the citizens of each country. For every individual and every household, ensuring a proper, contemporary living habitation is a matter of paramount importance. The purpose of the author in this report is to examine a sample of clients of two- and three -bedroom apartments in Varna and on this basis to present his vision of the affordability of this type of housing in Bulgaria. A brief theoretical overview is made of the formulation of housing affordability and the indicators for its coverage. On the basis of data from a survey conducted on the territory of Varna, conclusions are drawn for the status of buyers of two- and three-bedroom apartments and their presence on the housing market.
