Abstract

• We studied how factors in the digital, social, and built environment affect older adults' loneliness. • Social support, socioeconomic status, and household composition are key factors in directly reducing perceived loneliness. • The variety of ICT use contributes to a larger social network, which increases social support. • Built environment factors influence loneliness through their association with social cohesion and social support. • Creating attractive and safe physical environments is crucial for social support and mitigating feelings of loneliness.
