This paper compares residential satisfaction and aspects of housing tenure and affordability for the elderly in the United States and the Netherlands. The observed differences are examined against the background of differences in the national systems of general housing provision. In this regard, the United States and the Netherlands represent two very different models: capitalist market economy versus welfare state. Any attempts to transfer housing solutions from one country to another must carefully consider these broader contexts
