摘要

本研究首次就住房升级对居住者健康的影响进行了具有人口代表性的准实验性估算。我们分析了 20 世纪 90 年代德国统一后东德的特殊改造时期。在史上最大的政府贷款项目之一的推动下，360 万套住宅进行了翻新，重点是对建筑隔热、窗户和供暖系统进行升级。利用基于社会经济小组（SOEP）的丰富调查数据以及德国医院住院的行政记录，我们一致表明，住房的耐候性升级可持续减少老年人口样本对医疗保健的需求。

Health implications of housing retrofits: Evidence from a population-wide weatherization program

This study provides the first population-representative quasi-experimental estimates on the impact of housing upgrades on occupant health. We analyze the exceptional period of renovations in East Germany following the German reunification during the 1990s. Triggered by one of the largest governmental loan programs in history, 3.6 million dwellings were renovated, focussing on upgrades to the building insulation, windows and heating systems. Using rich survey data based on the Socio-Economic Panel (SOEP) as well as administrative records of hospital admissions in Germany, we consistently show that housing weatherization upgrades sustainably reduce the demand for health care among the elderly sample of the population.
