Rapid population aging and an increase in older individuals live alone require flexible policy and programs to address challenges facing current housing environment. This study aimed at critically examine the opinions on the recent central and local government ?initiated housing interventions from the practitioners in the field. The focus was on their perception about the service-enriched housing models and collective living environment as an alternative living environment for older adults. Our findings from the in-depth focus-group interview with 22 practitioners are as follows: 1) Current housing welfare interventions lack systematic system, so that it is only limited to substantial intervention, 2) Recent policy/programs efforts seem promising, but still based on means-based scheme, lack of care for older adults, 3) There is different level of understanding on service-enriched or supportive housing models, and particularly, a strongly negative perception about the term ‘collective or congregate living’ warrants a careful and cautious approach to policy making efforts, 4) It is emphasized that there should be need for more attention to the housing welfare for older adults and various alternatives for the elderly living alone with low incomes. We provided five implications that are important for developing housing models for low-income older adults.
