ABSTRACT

This study examines the effects of the characteristics of parent household and child household, as well as intergenerational transfer on geographical proximity, and gender effect. The behavior of residential mobility in older households is compared according to the data from the KLoSA (2008 to 2016). Research findings indicate that the behavior of geographical proximity between generations appears when the need for support increases due to physical and economic constraints of old age. Intergenerational transfer of time affects the geographical proximity between generations in both directions via face-to-face contact. The transfer of money from children to parents affects the geographical proximity. In the case of gender effect, the female household shows a difference in the geographical proximity regarding housing stability, gender of the child, and transfer of money from the children. Therefore, the behavior of residential proximity between the generations of older households is similar to the behavior of residential migration of the older households according to life cycle needs.
