A study on the difference in the future residence probability of residents, and the effect of housing tenure choice and period of residence on them in small and medium-sized cities: Focused on Gyeongsangnam-do

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to compare between cities‘ the possibility of 'continuing to live in the city where you currently live', and to analyze the extent to which differences in living conditions affect the possibility. An empirical analysis was conducted using data from 18 cities and counties in Gyeongsangnam-do and 15,000 households. A binary logit model was used. Among the 18 cities and counties in Gyeongsangnam-do, the cities and counties that had the greater possibility of continuing residence than Changwon-si were Miryang, Yangsan, Uiryeong, Changnyeong, Goseong, Hadong, Hamyang, Geochang, and Namhae. On the other hand, the smaller cities and counties were Geoje, Hapcheon, and Gimhae. Compared with those whose tenure type is their own house, the probability of continuous residence for those living in the rented house is smaller. The longer the period of residence in Gyeongsangnam-do and Gyeongsangnam-do cities and counties, the more likely they are to continue living.
