AB - The purpose of this study is not only to closely examine and compare the current status of suicide by population groups but to identify urban environmental factors that affect suicide by population groups. To this end, the physical, socioeconomic and service environmental factors of cities that affect suicide are figured out by economically active and elderly population groups. As a result, there are some differences in the current status of suicide deaths between two population groups, and the urban environmental factors that influence suicide also show different patterns depending on the main causes and demographic characteristics of two population groups leading to suicide. In terms of suicide of economically active population, economic problems are the most important cause of suicide, so socioeconomic environments have a great impact on suicide, while the elderly population is greatly affected by physical environments such as deprived neighborhood environments due to the fact that they spend a lot of time in their residence due to the weakening of their physical capabilities. These results are interpreted that policies for responding to suicide are not limited to health and medical care, but require more diverse approaches such as improving urban environments. It also informs that differentiated policies are required because the suicide patterns of each population group are different.
