  18. Place & Property// Meanings • Satisfaction: • Homeowners more satisfied with housing situations than tenants • Unknown related to innate preference for homeownership or due to housing policies pushing households into direction of homeownership • [Elsinga & Hoekstra, 2005] / Faculty of Architecture, Building & Planning
