This study aims to identify the characteristics of neighborhoods where the mental health of the elderly is collectively vulnerable, and to provide implications for the creation of future age-friendly cities. Unlike many existing studies that consider the walking area in analyzing the impact of the urban environment on the physical and mental health of the elderly, this study aims to consider the actual range of daily life of the elderly. For the analysis, this study utilized the Health Interview Survey of the Ministry of Health and Welfare's Home Health Care Project. In this case, the average score of each responding elderly person was derived for each town and village, which are the basic administrative regions of Korea, and areas with a score of 5 or more were selected for analysis. Then, we analyzed the impact of local characteristics on the daily activity level and mental health of the elderly using a structural equation model. As a result, we found that the public transportation environment, medical environment, and shopping environment encourage the daily activities of the elderly and support their mental health.
