Taking as objects 352 old people residing in the paid or gratuitous nursing homes in the regions of Seoul, Kyunggi, Chungcheong, Jeolla and Kyungsang, this study aims to compare the life status (variables related to moving into the facilities, interpersonal relationship after moving into the facilities) as per residential type of institution for the aged and to grasp estimate variables affecting the residential type of institution for the aged. The findings of this study is as follows. First, in the case of paid nursing home, male is more than female and the prevalent range of age is over 65 and below 85. However, the difference in academic background is not significant. Second, while the most important motive to move into gratuitous nursing home is having no supporter, important motive to move into paid nursing home is payment by supporter. Checking lodger before they move into the facilities, more than half of the aged in the gratuitous nursing home lived alone, which coincides with the above motive, i.e., non-existence of supporting family. In the case of paid nursing home, half of the aged lived with children or relatives and the next group lived with spouse. Finally, it turned out that while the aged move into the gratuitous nursing home at their own will, those in the paid nursing home mostly do not. Third, it turned out that the aged residing in gratuitous nursing home tend to recognize amicably the relation between staffs in the facilities and the aged or among the aged than those in the paid nursing home. Fourth, though the aged residing in the paid nursing home suffer severe ADL and show more positive image, the difference between two groups in mental depression is not significant. Fifth, checking estimate variables affecting the residential type of institution for the aged by discriminant analysis, it turned out that sex, age, living together before moving into the facilities, intention to move into the facilities, relation among the aged after moving into the facilities, relation with family, ADL of the aged, image of the aged have significant influence.
