Really? I doubt that. Perhaps most buildings, as storey buildings do often have a shared sauna. As an anecdote, I have lived perhaps in 6 rented apartments, and two of them had a sauna, and I don't think I decidedly chose non-sauna option.
Here's some article in Finnish about the current trend that new apartments don't necessarily have
a sauna: https://yle.fi/uutiset/3-9393813 https://yle.fi/uutiset/3-9393813
It could be that most households have but also I've seen an article that people use them plainly as storage rooms.

- frosted-flakes 5y agoYes, really.
- mushishi 5y agoQuick search gives 1.720 million saunas in apartments (total 2.3). So your claim sounds about right. https://www.tilastokeskus.fi/tup/suoluk/suoluk_asuminen_en.html https://www.tilastokeskus.fi/tup/suoluk/suoluk_asuminen_en.h...
