Abstract
This study investigates the reactions of non-urban elderly to age segregated high rise housing. It was found that rural elderly reacted more negatively to high rise living than previous studies have reported for urban elderly. Some suggestions are offered for further research and for improving the existing high rise environments in rural areas.
