The government department promotes the policy direction of Long-Term Care Plan 2.0 and expects to build a community-based care environment and implement the goal of aging in place. However, at present, the population that needs to be taken care of is increasing and there is a growing gap between the supply and demand for care resources, so the spatial distribution is a key factor. Therefore, this study explores how to rationally allocate resouces in space, and the need of population distribution should be considered in order to achieve the accessibility of service resources. Taking Taipei City as the scope, this study reviews the spatial distribution accessibility and location selection of day cares, conducts spatial analysis and calculation of geographic information system, and combines with in-depth interviews with experts and scholars to comprehensively analyze various spatial attributes and other major factors to explore their suitability. The conclusions of this study are: (1) The high population projection for day care in Taipei City is 2,115 people, and the number of approved housing service people is 846. The average day care service radius is 1,500 meters. (2) The spatial distribution of day care resources in Taipei City has a cluster phenomenon. There are 46 villages that have not been able to obtain day care resources within three kilometers of the road. Using the enhanced two-step floating catchment area method, the spatial distribution accessibility is 9.8. (3) By using the location selection mode calculation of the largest service area to do the location allocation of day care resources, it can improve the overall day care spatial distribution accessibility to 23.1. Based on the above results and the opinions from the interviewed experts and scholars, the principle of location selection of community-based day care resources is summarized, and the government or relevant departments are given reference for setting up day cares.
