ABSTRACT

This study examined the effects of the structural community contexts and sense of community on sense of community among women. A door-to-door survey was conducted to collect the individual-level data from 385 women. The social indicators of 20 residential district was collected for the community-level data. The results of the Hierarchical Linear Model analysis showed that women who live in the community with the higher percentage of the low-class population and the foreigners are less likely to feel that their community is safe. In addition, women who have more sense of community are more likely to feel that their community is safe. Suggestions were made that the environmental improvement of neighborhoods and housing, the building of the reciprocal culture for the foreigners in communities, and the facilitating of the community participation.
