A Study on Factors Affecting Anxiety about Non-Refund of Deposits for Tenant Households

This study examines the factors influencing tenants' anxiety about security deposit refunds, an issue that can lead to rental disputes and potential fraud. Using binary logistic regression analysis on data from the Microdata Integrated Service, we identified several significant predictors of this anxiety. Among household characteristics, family composition emerged as a key factor. Economic variables including debt status, security deposit amount, and total assets significantly affected anxiety levels. Housing characteristics such as occupancy type and housing type also played important roles. Additionally, regional variations were substantial, with significant differences observed in 14 of the 17 studied regions. These findings highlight the need for targeted housing policies that address the diverse circumstances of tenants across different demographic, economic, housing, and geographic contexts. Such tailored approaches could help mitigate security deposit concerns and improve rental market experiences.
