Abstract
Low birth rate and aging are rapidly changing the demographic of our society and pushing us entering into a super aged society. In the super-aged society where more than 20% of the total population is over 65 years old, the residence problem for elderly has become a growing social problem as life expectancy increases. This study used the '2020 Survey on the Elderly' and a multinomial logistic regression model to analyze factors affecting AIP (Aging in Place) attitudes among the elderly. As a result, first, AIP attitudes against 'moving to good housing' when healthy are seen when sample are older, single, live in their own home, and do not have a private or retirement pension. AIP attitude toward 'moving to a house with care and convenience services' appears in those who are unmarried, have a short period of education, live in monthly rentals, and receive housing pension and farmland pension. Next, AIP attitude against ‘living with children’ when having difficulty with mobility appears in male, single, living in own home, and not receiving a private or retirement pension. The AIP attitude against 'moving to welfare housing' appears in cases where the period of education is short, living in a self-owned house, receiving housing pension or farmland pension, and having many financial assets or low debt. The study highlights the importance of cash flow for elderly households. AIP attitudes are linked to private and public income. Securing regular income for retired seniors and improving cash flow policies is crucial for realizing AIP.
