쇠퇴지역 거주민의 사회경제적 지위에 따른 지역 여건 평가에 관한 연구

초록

The previous studies have shown that residents in declining areas tend to evaluate their local circumstances in a negative way. However, subjective perception of local conditions may vary according to the socio-economic status as individuals with higher socio-economic status have better accessibility to regional resources provided by adjacent areas. The main purpose of this study is to investigate whether subjective evaluations of local circumstances differ depending on the socio-economic status of residents in declining areas. The data used in this study were from Hankyoreh 21 survey of the residents who have been residing in the declining areas. The main finding of this research is that socio-economic status does not have any influence on subjective evaluation of the local circumstances. However, residents with lower socio-economic status are likely to perceive greater socio-economic gap between Seoul Metropolitan Area and the area where they live.
