This research examined the relationship between health and life satisfaction in women over 65 years of age in local communities. The World Health Organization's definition of health as physical, mental, and social well-being was used as the foundation for analyzing the effects of health on life satisfaction. The Korean Longitudinal Study of Aging was utilized to analyze data from 2,356 women over 65. Our results showed that significant influential factors included satisfaction in relationship with children, self-rated health, depression, participation in social activities, and number of family members. Our findings suggest how older women's health and life satisfaction can be improved, and give necessary directions for future studies
