In recent years, a major city Shanghai has been facing a rapid aging of population. In the meantime, since living at home is becoming mainstream for the elderly, there is an urgent need to provide an equipment and space with various measures that respond to the elderly in each residential housing. Therefore, we conducted a questionnaire survey and measured survey of elderly people living in public subsidized housing. In order to continue living at home, the elderly classified into four clusters consisted of personal conditions, family conditions, and living conditions. Through the analysis, elderly people’s needs for living continuation are found out in accordance with their conditions.
