This article focuses on the case study of people and the issue of their housing. One indicator of regional development is the standard of housing for the region's inhabitants. The South Moravian Region, Blansko District, was selected for this article. The living conditions of people who, for certain reasons, have found themselves in a situation where they do not have their own “roof over their heads” are described here. Most of them would like to improve their living conditions. Case study clients describe their own and other's fault, which caused them to live in these conditions. The article also describes the possibilities of social housing, including subletting and homelessness, which society in the 21st century should be able to solve. The article also focuses on a private landlord who does not resolve conflicts between residents in his hostel. The article includes the identification of common causes of poor conditions for the actors in the case studies.
