Summary: | The Malaysian National Housing Policy (2018-2015) explains that the housing sector has expanded to the fifth phase, which in the last phase explains about the affordable housing. However, the planning and implementation of affordable housing places more emphasis on home prices rather than the impact of the physical aspects on the well-being and quality of life of its occupants which has directly raised issues and problems that related to the quality of life of the occupants. Therefore, this paper attempted to investigate the quality of life dimension of multi-storey affordable housing and its relationship with socio-economic. The literature identified, five dimensions signify the quality of life of the occupants viz. environment, physical aspects, public safety, social involvement, and public facilities. This helps extend the literature on quality of life as a multidimensional as demonstrated by a growing number of studies that have been conducted. Further research and policy simulations are necessary to provide specific and relevant recommendations by considering composite household indicators that can significantly affect the quality of life. |
