نبذة مختصرة : This paper analyses the population aged 65 and over who do not live with a partner, in ten European countries participating in the four editions of the “Survey of Health, Ageing and Retirement in Europe”, from 2004/5 to 2010/1. Logistic regression for panel data is used to analyse the ratio between living with others and living alone (not considering institutionalised people). Controlling for age, sex, country of residence and observation wave, it shows the effect of educational level, number of children, limitations in activities of daily living and level of income. A clear regional division arises, being southern Europe the area with the lowest probability of living alone, central Europe in an intermediate position and the highest in Nordic countries. Coresidence is associated with the loss of functional autonomy, educational attainment and number of children. In contrast, a significant link with income level has not been found. ; Este trabajo analiza la población mayor de 65 años que no convive en pareja en diez países europeos que participaron en las cuatro ediciones de la Survey of Health, Ageing and Retirement in Europe, de 2004/5 a 2010/1. Mediante la regresión logística para panel se analiza la ratio entre convivir con otras personas y vivir solo (sin considerar a la población mayor que se institucionaliza). Controlando por edad, sexo, país de residencia y ciclo de observación, se presenta el efecto del nivel educativo, número de hijos, limitaciones para las actividades de la vida diaria y nivel de renta. Aparece con claridad la división regional, siendo el área con la menor probabilidad de vivir solo el sur de Europa, la intermedia la Europa central y la de mayor los países nórdicos. La corresidencia está asociada a la pérdida de autonomía funcional, al nivel de instrucción y al número de hijos. En contraste, no se ha encontrado una vinculación significativa con el nivel de renta.
