Using the data from China Longitudinal Ag-ing Social Survey in 2018,this paper analyzes the impact of the community age-friendly environment on the life satisfaction of the elderly,and further explores its pathways.The results show that the more community activity places/facilities,the more community elderly care services and the better the community at-mosphere for respecting and caring for the elderly,the elderly's life satisfaction scores are significantly higher.The community age-friendly environment has a direct effect on the life satisfac-tion of the elderly.At the same time,social adjustment had a significant mediating effect on the impact of community age-friendly environment on the life satisfaction of the elderly,and the indirect effect accounted for 12.25％of the total effect.This study provides useful inspiration for us to actively respond to the aging population,the construction of age-friendly communities and the improvement of the subjective well-being of the elderly in China.
