삶의 질적 풍요로움을 추구하는 21세기에 생활수준이 향상되고 삶에 대한 욕구가 다양해짐에 따라 주거의 질에 관한 관심이 점점 커지고 있다. 삶의 만족도는 주거만족이라고 하는 기본적 욕구가 충족된 생활로 볼 수 있으며 이러한 욕구의 충족으로 삶의 질은 높아질 것이다. 인간은 누구나 사회관계를 맺으며 생활하고, 사회관계는 다양한 측면에서 개인들의 삶의 질에 큰 영향을 미치고 있다. 이에 중장년층의 주거환경과 사회적 자본의 실태를 알아보고 주거환경과 삶의 만족도와의 관계에서 사회적 자본이 미치는 영향을 실증연구를 통해 밝히고자 하였다. 이에 본 연구는 자료 수집을 위해 중장년층을 대상으로 설문조사를 실시하였고, 설문지 500부를 배포하여 490부를 수거한 후 결측값이 없는 484부를 SPSS Win Ver. 21.0을 이용하여 실증 분석하였다. 분석결과 첫째, 중장년층의 주거환경이 삶의 만족도에 미치는 영향을 분석한 결과 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 중장년층의 주거환경과 삶의 만족도 간에 사회적 자본의 조절효과를 분석한 결과 부분적으로 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 이와 같은 연구결과에 따라, 향후 중장년층의 보다 만족스러운 삶의 질 향상을 위한 방향과 우리나라 주거정책 수립에 유용한 기초자료를 제공하고자 한다.
