Maintaining the quality of life for the aging urban population is becoming more and more crucial since this is becoming a global phenomenon. Cities need to be comfortable and accommodate facilities according to the needs of older adults to support the aging of the urban older adults while improving their quality of life. This paper aims to determine the value of a city's quality of life in relation to its urban facilities and services, as well as to examine the relationship between quality of life and the aging population in Indonesian cities.
This study measures the quality of life using a hedonic model approach, which determines the price of each component of city comfort, both as facilities and services. We also employed an empirical model to investigate the relationship between quality of life and the aging population in Indonesian cities.
Our research shows that the majority of Javan cities have high quality of life values because older residents have lived there for a long time, they can access facilities and services that meet their needs as they age.
The quality of life plays an important role in the number of urban older adults, with health facilities, older adults-friendly transportation, security guarantees, and communication accessibility having a significant effect on the increase in urban older adults in Indonesia. The city governments should provide urban facilities that understand the characteristics and adjust to the needs of older adults.
随着老龄化成为一种全球现象，维持城市老年人口的生活质量变得越来越重要。城市需要变得舒适，并根据老年人的需求配备设施，以支持城市老年人的老龄化进程，同时提高他们的生活质量。本文旨在确定城市生活质量相对于其城市设施和服务的价值，并研究印度尼西亚城市生活质量与老年人口之间的关系。
本研究采用享乐模型方法来衡量生活质量，该方法确定城市舒适度的每个组成部分的价格，包括设施和服务。我们还采用了一个实证模型来研究印度尼西亚城市生活质量与老年人口之间的关系。
我们的研究表明，爪哇岛的大多数城市生活质量值较高，因为老年居民在那里居住了很长时间，他们可以获得随着年龄增长而满足其需求的设施和服务。
生活质量在城市老年人口数量方面起着重要作用，医疗设施、对老年人友好的交通、安全保障以及通信便利性对印度尼西亚城市老年人口的增加有显著影响。市政府应提供了解老年人特点并适应其需求的城市设施。
