The data showing that young people in larger cities (Ljubljana, Maribor) live to a lesser extent in their parents’ household than their peers out- side larger cities is particularly surprising; 49.8% of young people living in larger cities state that they live permanently with their parents – in all other groups this share exceeds 60%. Due to rising real estate prices, young people in larger cities would be expected to rely more on parental support and “family property” than their peers from smaller towns or rural areas. In this context, there is a higher degree of youth independ- ence in larger cities compared to their peers living outside larger cities.
