Abstract

The concept of residential satisfaction is multifaceted and encompasses various aspects contributing to the overall well-being and contentment of individuals residing in low-cost housing. This study aims to investigate the factors influencing residential satisfaction among low-cost housing residents, including dwelling characteristics, support services, accessibility to facilities, and the social environment. The research emphasises the importance of housing features such as adequate living space, structural quality, and amenities, along with integrated support services tailored to the diverse needs of residents. These housing qualities are highlighted as significant findings in the research. Additionally, the study underscores the value of access to essential facilities like public transportation, retail outlets, and educational institutions, as well as the role of the social environment in fostering community engagement, social support, and safety. The findings contribute to a deeper understanding of the factors shaping residential happiness in low-cost housing communities, providing valuable insights for policymakers and housing providers in developing sustainable and inclusive housing solutions.
