The aim of this study is to determine the effect of residential environment on life satisfaction of older adults over the life courses. For these analyses, this study combines all the KReIS data set which are the first wave through the sixth wave and analyzes the relationship between life satisfaction and home-ownership and housing types using latent growth model. Key findings are as follows: First, we found that the intercept and slope of housing types have a significant effect on slope of life satisfaction respectively. Second, the intercept and slope of home-ownership have a significant effect on the intercept and slope of life satisfaction respectively. It implies that the residence environment may make differences in life satisfaction in old age. Based on the empirical findings, this study suggests that housing welfare program and the community based social services need to enhance older adults life satisfaction.
