산업화와 도시화를 경험한 사회는 인구통계학적변화를 경험하고 있다. 이러한 변화는 세계적으로 고령화 인구를 점차 증가시키고 있으며, 이러한 현상이 세계적으로 확산되고 있다. 한국도 2000년에 고령화 사회에 접어 들어들었으며, 2018년에는 고령 사회가 직면할 것으로 예상된다. 따라서 이러한 현상에 대비한 고령자주택의 개발 등의 노인의 라이프 생활을 고려한 주택개발이 강조되고 있다. 본 연구의 목적은 고령자 주택에 입주하기 원하는 예비 수요자의 특성에 따른 결정요인을 분석하는 것을 목적으로 한다. 이를 바탕으로 본 연구에서는 유형별로 보다 세분화하여 이항 로지스틱 회귀분석을 통한 고령자 주택의 선택의사에 미치는 영향요인을 세분화 하였다. 이를 통해 개선방안 및 시사점을 도출하였는데 이에 대한 시사점으로, 첫째, 고령자주택은 개발 유형별로 선호하는 특성이 상이하게 도출됨을 알 수 있었다. 둘째, 개인특성에 따른 지표가 가장 많은 부분을 차지하고 있어 고령자주택의 수요조사가 우선적으로 시도되어야 함을 알 수 있었다. 셋째, 도심형 고령자주택 개발 시 원활한 개발을 위해 지자체 차원의 지가를 고려한 토지확보 방안이 필요하다. 넷째, 교외형 고령자주택 개발 시 경기도권에 수요층이 자연스럽게 고령자주택으로 입주하고 생활할 수 있도록 근교에 생활환경기반을 마련해야 할 것이다. 마지막으로 전원형 고령자주택 개발 시 다양한 생산, 여가 등의 프로그램의 도입되어야 할 것으로 판단된다.
