According to a survey by the Katadata Insight Center (KIC), a significant portion of Indonesia's middle class does not own their own homes.

A majority, or 43.4%, of middle-class respondents still live in their parents' homes. 32% own their own homes, and 24.6% live in rented accommodation.

Broken down by age group, the highest proportion of middle-class individuals living in their parents' homes are from Generation Z, at 62.5%.

This is followed by millennials at 37.5% and Generation X at 25%.

KIC also found that a majority, or 83.8%, of respondents who do not yet own a home plan to do so within the next five years.

"Interestingly, 45.9% of those with such plans have additional/side jobs to increase their income," wrote KIC in its report.

The KIC survey involved 472 middle-class respondents aged 17-59 years.

33.9% were Generation Z (aged 17-27 years), 45.8% millennials (aged 28-43 years), and 20.3% Generation X (aged 44-59 years).

Respondents were spread across 10 major Indonesian cities: Bandung, Medan, Surabaya, Jayapura, Jakarta, Semarang, Banjarmasin, Yogyakarta, Denpasar, and Makassar.
