This text examines the evolution of the notion of "adequate housing" in United Nations texts between 1946 and 2020, from which a content analysis is carried out in relation to the housing variables that twenty-one Latin America and Caribbean countries apply for their residential diagnoses on adequate housing, and with the qualification given to the right to housing in their constitutions, whose objective component are the housing indicators that the nations apply. Equivalent notions such as decent, affordable, healthy housing and habitat are constructed as a motto by the United Nations, from which financialization of housing is installed, which is not assimilated to adequate housing. The inadequacies in housing, among which are the financing instruments for its access, disturb the health of the dweller. This appreciation could enhance the understanding of housing as a shelter in the guarantee of housing rights and not only as an object of wealth, particularly in times of exception such as those that arise with a pandemic. El acceso a la vivienda adecuada se instaura según el ingreso familiar y mediante mecanismos de financiación desde la década de 1940. Se examina la evolución de la noción “vivienda adecuada” en textos de las Naciones Unidas entre 1946 y 2020, a partir de los cuales se realiza un análisis de contenido que se pone en relación con las variables habitacionales que veintiún países de América Latina y el Caribe aplican para sus diagnósticos residenciales sobre vivienda adecuada, y con la cualificación dada al derecho a la vivienda en sus constituciones, cuyo componente objetivo son los indicadores habitacionales que las naciones aplican. Nociones equivalentes como vivienda digna, económica, saludable y hábitat son construidas a manera de lema por las Naciones Unidas, desde las cuales se instala la vivienda financiarizada, que no se asimila a la vivienda adecuada. Las inadecuaciones en vivienda, entre las que se encuentran los instrumentos de financiación para su acceso, perturban la salud del morador; esta apreciación podría potenciar la comprensión de la vivienda como abrigo en la garantía de los derechos habitacionales y no solo como objeto de riqueza, en particular en momentos de excepción como los que surgen con una pandemia.
