ABSTRACT

The main purpose of this study is to analyze the housing demand characteristics of older households using housing demand function. For this purpose we classify older households as those persons over 55 years of age, and break this group down further into 3 sub-groups (55-64, 65-74, and 75 years and older). Employing 2010 Korea Housing Survey data, the two-stage Heckit model was estimated and the marginal effects and elasticity of the major explanatory variables are additionally calculated. Estimation results show that the 55-64 and 65-74 household categories show a tendency to reduce their housing size, while the overall probability of home ownership in general, decreases for the 75 years and over household category.
