從過去老人居住安排在區域差異的研究中,大多著重於城市與鄉村老人的人口特質,其中老人的經濟獨立性也是大範圍討論,鮮少以就業機會高低去探討老人居住安排差異之因素,而過去部分研究指出城鄉差異中,大部分談到住宅權屬,尚未提及各縣市就業機會的差異,因此,推測老人居住安排差異是受地區間就業機會不同造成的,引發本研究動機。採用內政部統計處的「2012年社會變遷調查資料檔-家庭組」與行政院主計處的「99年人口及住宅普查」的原始資料,以65歲以上老人為樣本,經多項式Logistic模式估計結果發現,就業機會確實影響老人居住安排上的選擇:在就業機會方面,顯示就業機會越多的地方,越傾向與子女居住;其顯示即使農業就業機會是存在的,子女還是傾向前往非農就業機會較多的地區,而導致無法與老人同住。
The last part of the study pointed out the differences in urban and rural areas, most talked about residential ownership, employment opportunities have not yet mentioned the differences between urban and rural areas, and therefore, presumably elderly living arrangements are subject to regional differences in different jobs caused by the motivation of the study. Using "2012 Social Change Survey data files - family group" and the original data, "Population and Housing Census 2010", the elderly over the age of 65 as a sample, estimated by the Binomial Logistic model was found. In terms of employment opportunities, more employment opportunities to display local, the more likely to live with their children; their shows children in order to find more job opportunities to a high degree of urbanization of the area, forcing the possibility of a low level of urbanization of residence for the elderly and children reduced.
