“…First, standards for analysis of residential quality (Galster and Hesser, 1981;Cutter, 1982;Weidemann et al, 1982), and second, use of residential satisfaction as a variable predicting action (Speare, 1974;Newman and Duncan, 1979;Weidemann and Anderson, 1985). The former delves into the extent to which the resident is satisfied with the residential environment, including the neighborhood, housing, and neighbors (Canter and Rees, 1982); the latter seeks to predict behaviors, such as residents with low residential satisfaction moving away or improving their residential quality through acting on new requirements (Priemus, 1986).…”

“…Housing is therefore an important component of individual well-being and quality of life (Vera-Toscano and Ateca-Amestoy 2008). Knowledge of the determinants of housing satisfaction can be used to design more effective housing programs and prevent problems arising from mismatches between the perceptions of policy makers and residents (Weidemann et al 1982; Lu 1999; Vera-Toscano and Ateca-Amestoy 2008). Furthermore, this knowledge is also critical for a better understanding of decision processes underlying household mobility (Lu 1999).…”
