To understand existing housing type and living style is important for considering suitable housing planning. The urban housing types were partly outlined as a low-income housing delivery system in Bangkok in 1970-80s. Since Thailand experienced dramatic economic and social changes during 1980-90s, various housing are seen in Bangkok and its vicinity. This study tries to outline the existing urban housing types at all income levels in Bangkok based on housing supply transitions including housing policy and housing developments. The study summarizes 16 housing types provided by 4 sectors (employer, resident, developer and government) and discusses characteristics of typical housing unit.
