Abstract

This study aims to compare and analyze the quality of life of residents between those living in coastal and non-coastal areas. The indicators for the quality of life were divided into three different sectors. First, the economic sector observed the rate of population growth, the number of businesses per 1000 people, the employment and unemployment rate. The second was the environmental sector, which included the number of car registrations per capita, water supply and sewer service ratio, the urban park composition area per 1000 people and the road pavement rate. Thirdly, the social sector comprising data about the number of students per teacher, the number of sickbeds in medical institutions per 1000 people, the rate of traffic accidents per 1000 cars and the portion of social welfare budget in general accounting. The analysis method of standardized indicators and T-Test were carried out in 24 coastal cities and 51 non-coastal cities across the country. Results of the indicator comparison suggested there were significant differences in the number of businesses per 1000 people, the road pavement rate and the rate of traffic accidents per 1000 cars. From the results of each sector comparison, the coastal cities showed a higher value than non-coastal cities only in the economic sector. The quality of life comparison showed that coastal cities were better than non-coastal cities but were not statistically significant.

본 연구의 목적은 연안지역과 비연안지역 주민의 삶의 질을 객관적 지표를 이용하여 비교분석하는 것이다. 삶의 질에 대한 측정지표는 세 부문으로 구분하여 선정했다. 첫째, 경제부문에는 인구증가율, 인구 1000명당 사업체 수, 고용률, 실업률을 선택했다. 둘째, 환경부문에는 일인당 자동차 등록대수, 상수도 및 하수도 보급률, 인구 1000명당 도시공원 조성 면적, 도로포장률을 포함했다. 셋째, 사회부문에는 교원 1인당 학생수, 인구 1000명당 의료기관 병상 수, 자동차 1000대당 교통사고 발생률, 일반회계 중 사회복지예산 비중을 선정했다. 전국 24개 연안도시와 51개 비연안도시를 대상으로 표준화지표분석기법 및 평균차이검증(t-test)을 실시하였다. 측정지표별 비교결과, 두 집단간 인구 1000명당 사업체 수, 도로포장률, 자동차 1000대당 사고발생률에서 유의미한 차이가 나타났다. 각 부문별 비교결과, 경제부문에서만 연안도시가 비연안도시에 비해 높은 것이 유의미하게 나타났다. 삶의 질 비교결과, 연안도시가 비연안도시에 비해 높게 나타났으나, 통계적으로 유의미하지는 않았다.
