An Analysis of the Causal Relationship between Community Consciousness and Housing Satisfaction of Apartment Residents

For apartment in Seoul, housing convenience, safety, and conflict between residents coexist. The purpose of this study is to analyze the correlation between the demographic and socio-economic characteristics of apartment residents, housing physical characteristics, and housing satisfaction, and to suggest a plan for community life. The results of this study are as follows. In the analysis of the relationship between apartment residents' sense of community and housing satisfaction, the first is the restoration of neighborhood relationships. In the analysis of community consciousness, a sense of belonging, solidarity, and intimacy were found to be important factors. Restoration of neighborhood relations can be said to be the main solution to the problem of conflict in apartment community life. Second, the social maturity of apartment residents is necessary, and social maturity refers to the change of certain desirable behavior in society. Housing in apartments is closely correlated with housing satisfaction not only with basic 'dining, dining, and drinking', but also with family happiness and consideration among neighbors. A tired residential environment in which people do not get happy in the residence or do not get along well with their neighbors has a negative effect on housing satisfaction. In the meantime, if society has grown by placing emphasis on physical development, it is time to balance it with the mental aspect in the future. In terms of housing satisfaction, if we have tried to improve housing satisfaction in terms of the operation of the complex, facilities, and the environment outside the complex, housing satisfaction should also be discussed from a mental perspective such as community consciousness such as neighborhood, community culture, and community environment.
