Abstract: Few studies have focused on subjective well-being in adulthood in Japan, and the results have not been consistent with the changes in age. Therefore, this study aimed to examine the state of subject well-being and the factors that influence it among adults residing in large housing complexes. It focused on a large-scale housing complex, referred to as Housing Complex B, located in core city A in the Kinki area. A total of 1,987 households in the three zones of Housing complex B were selected as participants’ households. Between November and December 2021, an anonymous self-administered questionnaire was distributed to the participants’ households in a group post. A total of 155 completed questionnaires (7.8%) were received, from which 141 questionnaires were included in the analysis. The relationship between subjective well-being and the independent variables was examined using two-sample t-tests, one-way ANOVA, and Pearson’s product moment correlation coefficient. Multiple regression analysis was used to analyze the effects of the independent variables on subjective well-being.
