What's the meaning of "住まい" in "住まいが一番大変" sentence? I would like to ask about "" meaning. I know that "" is the hardest. And I also search about "" and they said it's "address, home, live, dwelling, residence". But there are no word that suit with "the hardest" and it's no make sense. Or this is a figurative sentence?? Thank you in advanced.

Please don't omit the context and the full sentence. So is this the full sentence you are asking about?

Then it means "Among , is the hardest". is a compound that refers to the three basic necessities in our life ( = clothing, = eating, = sheltering/housing/housekeeping).

refers to the same thing as here. Since is a short on-reading which makes little sense in isolation, this person rephrased it as , which is a wago that means the same thing.

But what this (= ) actually translates to depends on the context. It may refer to buying a new physical house, or it may refer to housekeeping jobs such as cleaning. The sentence may just mean "I like cooking but cleaning my house is a hard task to me".
