The dual purpose of this study was to investigate in a comprehensive fashion the impact of both micro (housing) and macro (neighborhood) environmental conditions on residential satisfaction as well as to ascertain the relative importance of housing compared to neighborhood elements within a sample of urban elderly men. Data revealed that residential satisfaction was largely a function of macro environmental conditions (i.e., neighborhood beauty, safety, interest level, and quietness).
