Abstract
This study explores financial elderly care security, household income, and community satisfaction among older adults in China. The results demonstrate a significant positive relationship between financial elderly care security and community satisfaction, though the strength of this association varies depending on the level of financial security. Internet usage moderates this relationship, while household income serves as a mediator, with its mediating effect exhibiting regional variations. Integrating mediating and moderating mechanisms, this research advances theoretical understanding and provides actionable insights for optimizing China's elderly care system.
