ABSTRACT

The willingness and attitude of urban residents towards green transformation of residential properties depend on their own conditions (gender, age, marital status, education level, occupation, monthly family income, family consumption habits, etc.) and the balance of housing needs. This study takes the perspective of residents' needs and refers to grounded theory to develop a survey questionnaire on the willingness of existing residential green renovation. The questionnaire mainly consists of closed ended questions on "sociodemographic variables" and "living status variables", as well as "green transformation motivation variables", "green transformation ability variables", "green transformation behavior variables", and "situational environment variables". The survey found that factors such as monthly family income, and household consumption habits affect the willingness and behavior of urban residents towards green renovation of existing residential buildings.
