His recent findings indicate that the construction of new housing in Latvia has stagnated, remaining close to the levels observed at the beginning of the 21st century, while neighboring Lithuania and Estonia have seen significant increases in housing development. His work highlights the pressing need for modern residential buildings in urban areas, particularly in Riga, where many residents still live in Soviet-era buildings.
