This study attempts to provide primary data on senior housing policies necessary for housing stability by determining which factors among housing preference characteristics the middle aged consider importantly in the coming aged society. Referring to the previous studies, this study drew sub-items of housing preference characteristics in the aspects of accessibility, economic feasibility, comfortableness, safety and sociality factors and analyzed the importance for each factor using analytic hierarchy process (AHP). The results showed that the experts perceive engaging in hobbies and leisure activities and socializing is important in the old age. Furthermore, with improvement of physical health due to advancement in the medical level, the seniors would also have more interest in using public facilities and leisure activities outside of their houses.

Meanwhile, the elderly with not high income have burden for housing maintenance expense, the consideration for this issues would be necessary.
