Resumo: OBJECTIVE: To identify the strategies developed by people in the aging process to keep living in their own home, despite the weaknesses and difficulties they face. METHODS: The research was carried out based on a survey of population aged 65 years or older in the Portuguese municipality of Portimão. Data were collected by questionnaire, in 2017, and submitted to statistical and content analysis. RESULTS: Most respondents own their household, where they feel safe and satisfied, and they show awareness and concern about the changes they have to make in their home to stay there. In addition to housing and livability conditions, health, economic resources, social network, and available services play a major role in the community. CONCLUSIONS: We identified several strategies used by older adults to stay in their households as they age and the ways they mobilize their available resources, as well as constraints of aging in place.

MÉTODOS: A pesquisa foi realizada a partir de um inquérito a uma população com 65 anos ou mais no município português de Portimão. Os dados foram recolhidos por questionário, em 2017, e submetidos a análise estatística e análise de conteúdo. RESULTADOS: A maioria dos inquiridos tem habitação própria, onde se sente segura e satisfeita, e revela ter consciência e preocupação em relação às alterações que deve executar em sua casa para ali poder permanecer. Além das condições habitacionais e de habitabilidade, as condições de saúde, os recursos económicos, a rede social e os serviços disponíveis assumem um papel preponderante no envelhecimento na comunidade. CONCLUSÕES: Foi possível identificar uma diversidade nas estratégias utilizadas para permanecerem em suas casas à medida que envelhecem e uma multiplicidade de formas como mobilizaram os recursos que têm à disposição, bem como constrições do ageing in place.Universidade de São Paulo.
