Abstract

The purpose of this study is to analyze the housing situation of elderly people in Inchen through statistical data and to suggest ways to improve elderly housing welfare and housing policy for Aging in place in the future. This survey investigated personal characteristics, household characteristics, current housing conditions, safety accident status, home modification needs, retirement housing plans, and needs for housing welfare programs among the elderly living in Incheon City. As a result of the survey, the demand for AIP is high, and a housing welfare policy that allows people to continue living in the community is necessary. However, as awareness of the housing welfare program is still low and difficulties are experienced in applying, it is necessary to increase accessibility to information related to the housing support program and find ways to promote it.
