Host and environmental factors for successful aging and aging in place have been investigated. At this moment, those factors would be categorized into the following groups: economic status, households, lifestyle habits, social capital, cognitive and physical function, disease status, and use of medical and nursing care. It must be mentioned that these factors are overlapped and are mutually related each other. We found that almost all of these categories have been previously reported to be significantly associated with successful aging and aging in place. Accordingly, none of these host and environmental factors should be ignored in order to achieve successful aging and aging in place.
Mitsuru et al. (2025) studied this question.
