국민임대주택 입주의사결정요인 분석

Abstract

The National Rental Houses (NRH) public rental house in which tenants can live for 30-years at the maximum have been supplied since 1998 in Korea. The target users are the low-income households whose salaries are under 70% of the average households’ income in urban area. It is necessary to investigate the determinants of the potential tenants’ decision of moving into the NRH because the imbalance between supply and demand appears in some regions. This paper derived the factors affecting NRH choice by analyzing the preference of low-income families. The main results are as follows: First, migration distance for residential mobility and commuting distance have significant negative influence on NRH choice. Second, people want to move into the NRH that is bigger or equal to their current houses. Third, smaller house they live, more sensitive they are about the migration distance. Finally, the low-income families depend on their needs rather than their affordability when they choose the NRH size. These results provide some implications: First, location of NRH need to be closer to the low-income families current neighborhood. Second, it is necessary to provide more various sized NRH and bigger NRH for regionally different housing needs of low-income families.
