3_Type of Housing/Apartment Building:
Based on the responses, it can be said that the greatest number
of respondents live in apartments in panel buildings (62%).
Proportionally, this is almost double the number of residents
living in apartments in brick buildings.
4_Form of Housing:
From the responses to the question of form of housing, it is clear
that the majority of the respondents live in cooperative-owned
apartments (53%), which is a certain form of leased housing.
Lease apartments make up the second-largest group of this
survey (31%).
5_Size of apartments of the respondents according to floorplan:
Graph 3: Apartment floorplans of the respondents. Author’s
design.
From the survey results, it is clear that the largest number of
respondents live in a 3+1 size apartment (3 bedrooms + 1
kitchen), which is 35% or 52 people. The other most frequently
inhabited apartments of the respondents according to size are
2+1 with 19%, 2+kk with 14% and 3+kk with 12%. The
apartments of other sizes together make up approximately 20%,
whereas this usually means apartments of a smaller size, and just
3% of the whole are 4+kk sized apartments. Residents of larger
apartments did not participate in the survey.
6_Existence of Building Amenities in Apartment Building of the
Respondents:

7_Real Usability of Building Amenities in the Apartment
Building of the Respondents (under the assumption of their
existence):
Graph 5: Real Usability of Building Amenities in the Apartment
Building of the respondents. Author’s design.
From the two previous Graphs, it can be inferred that building
amenities such as mailboxes, waste disposal, basement storage
units, utility rooms, parking areas, and assembly areas, if they
exist in the building, are 100% or almost 100% realistically used.
On the other hand, building amenities such as heating equipment
rooms, maintenance, laundry, mangles, and rug beating rooms
are almost not used at all in the apartment buildings. Other
residential equipment is used in a variety of ways, for example,
depending on the location, number of the respondents or the
structure of the inhabitants of the residential building.
8_Sufficiency of Building Amenities for the Needs of the
Respondents:
Graph 6: Sufficiency of building amenities for the needs of the
respondents. Author’s design.
It is clear from the questionnaire survey that some types of
building amenities predominantly do not suit the needs of
residents of the apartment building. These include, among
others, mainly a baby carriage and a bicycle storage room,
basement storage units, parking areas and flat roofs (but only in
the case of 4% of the respondents).
