Abstract
With the advent of an aging society, the problem of providing for the aged has increasingly become a problem to be solved. The proportion of the population aged 60 and above in the total population of a place reaches 10%, or the proportion of the population aged 65 and above in the total population reaches 7%, which is regarded as the standard for entering an aging society internationally. This paper takes the Happy Apartment in Yuejia Village, Rizhao City as an example to study the model and dilemma of mutual support in rural areas. Through the method of qualitative research, the author actually investigated the Happy Apartment in Yuejia Village. Empirical research shows that the happy apartment pension model has effectively improved the elderly's pension environment and is widely popular. The elderly can also further realize their own values. In addition, this pension model also faces challenges. It needs to further improve the elderly's understanding of mutual support for the elderly, and needs the strong support of social organizations.
