Abstract

Based on the 2015 Population and Housing Census data, this study focused on the differences in settlement conditions and grouped the characteristics of these housing situations by region. According to the regional group, the characteristics of settlement conditions, living conditions, and regional movement status by age group were collectively analyzed to derive basic data for the improvement direction of residential conditions among the elderly by their regional group. The analysis results revealed there were differences in various survey items such as the type of house, type of ownership, and the level of house aging based on the building year of the region group. Furthermore, regional characteristics were also identified in the influx of population by age group according to the movement of residence, the economic conditions of the elderly, and social activity conditions. In addition to regional characteristics, the characteristics of the housing and living conditions of baby boomers, which are different from the elderly of the postwar industrialized generation, were derived to find a direction to improve the residential conditions of the elderly. Based on these results, this study suggests that local governments and the central government should derive various elderly settlement models that are not uniform and cater to each region.
