지방도시 노인주거실태와 노인주택 수요분석

Abstract

This research aims to prepare policies for elderly housing, based on analysis of current status of elderly housing and demand for elderly housing. As provincial cities lack in terms of understanding elderly residence or housing, the research aims for policies targeting provincial cities, rather than existing policies mainly targeting for sizable cities. The result showed that between elderly and non-elderly age group in provincial cities, elderly age group had inferior living condition, but intention to move into public rental houses or silver towns was higher in non-elderly age group, and in analysis based on household attributes, one-person households had higher demand for elderly housing. The analysis showed interest on elderly housing is higher in non-elderly group, thus the needs for elderly housing should be considered to be more important in the coming years. Providing elderly housing in provincial cities must be focused on ways to provide low-floor housing within the central areas, considering housing types and city spaces, and needs for methods to provide public rental houses or silver towns is being raised. Moreover, ways to increase provision of ultimately lacking elderly welfare houses must be considered as an extremely important issue. Lastly, direct support methods for housing-related cost for the elderly age group were mainly about providing preservation of income and supporting maintenance cost.
