Intention to move is an attitude affected by dissatisfaction toward one’s residence. However, there is no clear correlation between the mediating variable of residential satisfaction and intention to move. The bond or attachment towards a place is one of the factors that cause a person’s attitude or behavior. Regarding such a case, this study aimed to find out the correlational relationship between the level of satisfaction and place attachment to the attitude of intention to move. By using a mixed-method approach, this study examined the assessment of physical and non-physical aspects of satisfaction and place attachment dimensions. The research was conducted in Medan Belawan District, Medan City in a slum area that is part of a suburb of Medan. Questionnaires were distributed both directly in the field and online. The collected data were analyzed by principal component analysis and multivariate correlation analysis to seek the relationship between latent variables. The results showed that functional and cognitive attachment are the main predictors of mismatch and opportunities elsewhere. Abstrak.
