Abstract

The purpose of this study was to analyze the usage status of each community facility and the satisfaction of the residents, and, thereby, find the recent problems of apartment community facilities. This study aimed to make approaches from two main perspectives: ‘usage status per facility’ and ‘satisfaction per facility’ relevant to collective housing community facilities. The research methods were as follows: first, the analysis criteria were established by examining the precedent studies and literature reviews on apartment communities; second, the usage status and satisfaction were examined by conducting an apartment community site survey and an FGD survey; third, a facility satisfaction survey was conducted among 400 people residing in Complex 4 and the collected data was used to derive the use of and satisfaction with community facilities through frequency analysis and regression analysis; fourth, the problems of community facilities and the directions for improvement were proposed by comprehensively organizing the derived results. The result of the qualitative survey showed that it was necessary to install locker storage space in consideration of the number of households and users, and that it was necessary to install facilities used by minors in a location where adults can manage and protect them. The result of the site survey showed that there was a need for a separate entrance to GX because the personnel flows of GX users and fitness users overlapped with one another, causing congestion and safety issues. Finally, the result of the quantitative survey showed that the satisfaction with sports facilities was lowered due to the ventilation problem, and that the satisfaction with rest facilities not only showed the highest mean value, but also had a significant effect on the satisfaction with community facilities.
