Abstract
Urbanization has led to an uneven distribution of adequate, safe, and affordable housing as the global population converges on cities. Many cities are faced with significant housing price disparities. Housing flexibility can reduce the cost of housing and meet the human need for comfort, health, safety, and a sense of community in housing, in line with the UN Sustainable Development Goals and Principles. As a result, experts and academics in the architectural design field are increasingly focusing their interest on this matter. This paper offers a bibliometric analysis of all Scopus database publications pertaining to housing flexibility from 2010 to 2021 and energy efficiency characterization. The status of research on housing flexibility in sustainability research is further discussed. The study uncovers yearly research publications, average citation rates, locally cited literature, prominent information sources, corresponding author countries, domestic scientific output, and a global representation of international collaborations. Overall, this research offers an in-depth description of the subjects and methodologies within the most frequently cited articles.
