In an effort to identify multiple risk factors that may contribute to the disabled elderly being at greater risk of homelessness than the nondisabled elderly, housing and household characteristics of both groups were compared. It can be inferred from this study that the disabled elderly were shown to be at greater risk than the nondisabled elderly for reasons of poor health, physical and/or mental conditions that limit work, minority status, household crowding, and limited financial assets as implied by lower valued housing, residence in public housing, and receipt of heat subsidies.
