The relative deprivation of U.S. elderly households as judged by their housing problems

SM Golant and AJ La Greca
Department of Geography, University of Florida.

A substantial number of U. S. elderly households have excessive housing costs or live physically deficient dwellings. It is unclear, however, whether they are more likely than nonelderly households to experience these housing problems. Using American Housing Survey data, this study investigates whether elderly households are more likely than nonelderly households to have these problems after controlling for their owner-renter status, race, and income. The findings do not support the more deprived status of elderly households.
