We identify salient research gaps in the elderly housing research and respond to the lack of knowledge, guided by Menec, Means, Keating, Parkhurst, and Eales' (2011 Menec, V. H., Means, R., Keating, N., Parkhurst, G., & Eales, J. (2011). Conceptualizing age-friendly communities. Canadian Journal of Aging, 30(3), 479–493.[Crossref], [PubMed], [Web of Science ®] , [Google Scholar]) age-friendly communities framework. These gaps in knowledge include age-friendliness, aging in place, conceptualization of home, falls, housing as it relates to disability and health, person-environment fit, and housing programs and initiatives. We discuss how the age-friendly paradigm can inform these areas of the literature and address problems presented in each. This review is intended to provide a roadmap for future researchers, administrators, clinicians, and policy makers.
