A STUDY ON SPATIAL MATCHING OF NANJING'S RESIDENTIAL CARE FACILITIES FROM THE PERSPECTIVE OF SUPPLY AND DEMAND
Balancing the supply and demand of residential care facilities is an important task in building an age-friendly society.This study analyzed the spatial characteristics of the supply and demand of residential care facilities in Nanjing based on data from the sixth and seventh national censuses at the street level.Acces-sibility of residential care facilities in Nanjing was calculated and spatial matching analysis was conducted between accessibility and the proportion of elderly population to study the supply and demand status.The study found that:1)The aging population in Nanjing increased rapidly from 2010 to 2020,showing a"high-low-high"circular structure pattern from the central city to the suburbs,and the elderly population was concentrated and agglomerating increasingly over the decade;2)Residential care facilities were more con-centrated in the central city,and accessibility rapidly decreased from the central city to the periphery,indicat-ing a significant uneven distribution;3)The supply and demand of residential care facilities in the central city and main urban areas matched relatively well,while in the suburbs,the supply and demand were not co-ordinated and local demand could not be met.Based on the analysis and measurement of the supply and de-mand of residential care facilities,this study provides a basis for optimizing the spatial layout of residential care facilities in Nanjing.
