Intra-person factors, interpersonal factors, structural factors. and controlling factors were entered step by step. There were differences in factors that prevent use of leisure and social welfare facilities among the elderly depending on the geographical types. The elderly who reside in urban areas are more likely to use leisure and social welfare facilities when they are older and live closer to the facilities are, and monthly income is lower. For the elderly who reside in complex areas with urban and rural characteristics, when facilities are more convenient and when they are older and female, the elderly were more likely to use leisure and social welfare facilities.
