Abstract
The purpose of this study is to investigate changes in the housing situation of pensioner households in Poland in 2009-2015. The author identifies indicators describing the housing situation of Polish pensioners, dividing them into three categories: housing conditions, economic situation, and demographic structure of pensioner households. The variation coefficient of most indicators was found to be low. The analysis is based on data from the Central Statistical Office, mainly on the results of a survey concerning household budgets and reports regarding pensions in Poland. The research indicates that most of the changes are positive in the area of the level of satisfying pensioners' housing needs. There were negative changes in the demographic structure of pensioner households (lower average number of persons per household and higher percentage of single-person households). As far as economic situation is concerned, some of the changes (including the level of income in relation to the average income in the national economy) are positive. However, negative changes occurred in the level of households’ debt related to housing maintenance.

Summary
The purpose of this study is to investigate changes in the housing situation of pensioner households in Poland in 2009-2015. The research indicates that most of the changes are positive in the area of the level of satisfying pensioners' housing needs. W ostatnich latach działania z zakresu polityki mieszkaniowej koncentrowały się głównie na zwiększaniu dostępności mieszkań dla osób młodych oraz nowych gospodarstw domowych przez realizację takich programów, jak „Rodzina na Swoim” i „Mieszkanie dla Młodych” [Marcinkiewicz, Matel, 2017]. Od 2015 roku sytuacja zmieniła się i liczba osób starszych w społeczeństwie polskim przekroczyła liczbę osób w wieku do 14 lat. W związku z tym, celem opracowania jest ocena zmian w sytuacji mieszkaniowej gospodarstw domowych emerytów w Polsce w latach 2009-2015
