| Abstract |
Recently, the demand for monthly rent has increased due to its lower interest and deposit requirements compared to Jeonse. Among these
options, Gosiwons, especially those with minimal or no deposit, are becoming more popular. However, with the rising demand for Gosiwons,
there is a lack of accurate classification for their building use types. Gosiwons designated for other uses and operated accordingly may evade
proper crime prevention and safety management measures, potentially leading to various issues. This study aims to classify residential types in
Guro-gu, one of Seoul's 25 autonomous districts, and assess their compliance with the Building Act. Additionally, it analyzes the distribution
characteristics of Gosiwon types by dong in Guro-gu, providing valuable data for fostering Gosiwons that may require use changes. Future
research should focus on addressing inappropriate designations and illegal use changes of Gosiwons, leading to a clear management system
for vulnerable housing populations |
