Impact of Improved Housing on Morale and Life Satisfaction

Carp, Frances M.

Gerontologist, 15, 6, 511-515, Dec 75

This study indicates satisfaction with life in general and with housing in particular is not a short-term result of moving into better housing. At the end of eight years, older people in good housing continued to be happier and better satisfied with life than were similar people elsewhere in the community. (Author/EJT)
