Abstract: The article examines the status and chang­es of indicators characterizing the provision of the population in the northwestern region of the Republic of Bulgaria with housing. Targeted by the survey are the administrative-territorial units of the northwestern region of Bulgaria – Vidin, Vratsa, Lovech, Montana, Pleven. Analyzed are the indicators characterizing the housing avail­ability for the population, which are housing num­bers per 1,000 residents, housing standard, av­erage housing area, housing area, number and structure of the housing units and residential buildings constructed and made operational, the concentration of housing factor, etc. Analyzed is the impact of various factors on these indicators. The conclusions may be summarized as follows: the housing numbers per 1,000 inhabitants and the housing standard, characterizing the housing availability for the population in the northwestern region of Bulgaria form an upward trend for the analyzed 2010-2014 period. The reasons for their improvement are the reduced rate of decrease in the housing numbers relative to the population and the growing housing area. These changes are the result of demographic, economic and so­cial changes since the global economic crisis.
