This study tried to verify the sequential mediating effect of leisure activities and health status in the effects of community environment on life satisfaction of the elderly. The subject of analysis is 7,957 elderly people who have experienced leisure activities(travel, hobbies) during the past year out of 10,097 valid samples of the 2020 survey on the elderly. For statistical analysis, model 6 of the SPSS 22.0 program and PROCESS macro v.3.5 program was used. As a result of verifying the significance of the sequential mediating effect of leisure activities and health status by the bootstrapping method, the total indirect effect of the community environment on life satisfaction, the mediating effect of leisure activities in the relationship between the community environment and life satisfaction (community environment→ leisure activities→ life satisfaction), the mediating effect of health status in the relationship between the community environment and life satisfaction (community environment→ health status→ life satisfaction), the sequential mediating effect of leisure activities and health status in the relationship between the community environment and life satisfaction (community environment→ leisure activities→ health status→ life satisfaction) were all statistically significantly verified. Through this, it was confirmed that community environment affects life satisfaction by sequentially mediated leisure activities and health status. Therefore, based on the results of this study, implications for action plans that can prevent or improve the deterioration of life satisfaction of the elderly were proposed.
