People in the EU: who are we and how do we live? 2015 edition

This publication draws on the results of the population and housing census that was conducted across the Member States of the European Union (EU) and the countries of the European Free trade Association (EFTA) in 2011. In addition, the publication presents a wide range of official social statistics from Eurostat databases in order to paint a detailed picture of the population, households and housing in the EU.

A number of topics are covered, ranging from an overview of the demographic situation in the EU and its Member States, to a portrait of EU households and family structures, geographic mobility in the EU or the increasing ageing of our societies. The publication concludes with a look at the future demographic challenges potentially facing the EU in the coming years.
