Technological developments, advances in the science of health care and geriatrics, and an increase in quality of life have led to a reduction in human mortality and a proportional increase in the elderly population within the average population. The aim of the study is to determine whether if there is a relationship between the rural and urban agglomeration of the elderly population in our country and the quality of life of the provinces. This work is based on comparative analysis of the spatial distribution of ageing level data in Turkey. For the purpose of the study, spatial agglomeration analysis of the elderly population in urban and rural areas was carried out by the location coefficient method and visualized by the mapping method. For the purpose of the study, spatial agglomeration analysis of the elderly population in urban and rural areas was carried out by the location coefficient method and visualized by the mapping method. According to the results obtained, the provinces where the elderly accumulate the most and the least in the urban and rural areas were determined, and then the quality of life data of the selected provinces which are yorumlamakobtained from TURKSTAT was examined and interpreted in detail. According to this study, it was determined that there is a linear relationship between the elderly population and the quality of life of the provinces (rural and urban) in our country. Accordingly, the quality of life of the elderly is high in the settlements, where the accumulation of the elderly is high; The quality of life is low in cities where the agglomeration of the elderly is low.
Although micro level (neighborhood, district, province level) is important in researches about ageing, this study reveals that ageing should be evaluated as a whole and macro level (national scale) approaches are needed.

Teknolojik geli�meler, sa�l�k hizmetleri ve geriatri bilimindeki ilerlemeler ile ya�am kalitesindeki art��, insan �l�mlerinin azalmas�na ve ya�l� n�fusun, n�fus ortalamas� i�erisinde oransal art��na sebep olmu�tur. �al��man�n amac� �lkemizdeki ya�l� n�fusun il d�zeyinde k�rsal ve kentsel y��lmas� ile illerin ya�am kalitesi verileri aras�nda bir ili�ki olup olmad��n� saptamakt�r. Bu �al��ma T�rkiye�de ya�l�l��n mek�nsal da��l�m�n�n il d�zeyi verileri ile kar��la�t�rmal� analizine dayanmaktad�r. �al��man�n amac� do�rultusunda mekansal y��lma analizleri ya�l� n�fusun kentsel ve k�rsal alandaki da��l�m� lokasyon katsay�s� y�ntemi ile ger�ekle�tirilmi�tir ve haritaland�rma y�ntemiyle g�rselle�tirilmi�tir. Buradan elde edilen sonu�lara g�re ya�l�lar�n kentte ve k�rda en �ok ve en az y��ld�� iller saptanm��, se�ilen illerin T��K�ten elde edilen ya�am kalitesi verileri detayl� olarak incelenmi� ve yorumlanm��t�r. Bu �al��maya g�re ��lkemizdeki ya�l� n�fusun il d�zeyinde (k�rsal ve kentsel) y��lmas� ile illerin ya�am kalitesi verileri aras�nda do�rusal bir ili�ki� oldu�u saptanm��t�r. Buna g�re ya�l� y��lmas�n�n y�ksek oldu�u yerle�melerde ya�l�lar�n ya�am kalitesi y�ksek; ya�l� y��lmas�n�n d��k oldu�u kentlerde ya�am kalitesi de d��kt�r. �lkemizde k�rsal ya�lanma oranlar�n�n artmas� sebebiyle k�r ve kent aras�ndaki olanak farklar�n�n azalt�lmas�, ya�am kalitesi ve ya�am memnuniyetinin artmas�n� sa�layacakt�r.
Ya�l�l�kla ilgili yap�lan ara�t�rmalarda mikro d�zey (mahalle, il�e, il d�zeyi) �nemli olsa da bu �al��ma ya�l�l��n b�t�nc�l olarak de�erlendirilmesi gerekti�ini ve makro d�zeyde (ulusal �l�ek) yakla��mlara ihtiya� duyuldu�unu ortaya koymaktad�r.
