Abstract
The purpose of this study is to clarify the estimations of living environments and intentions of housing relocation in early postwar Japanese New Towns(NT). The following are major findings. 1) Most residents are pleased with the plentiful nature that is accessible in every NT. However, the renewal method of rebuilding and sales of land entail risks that can include great changes to plentiful outdoor environments. 2) Many residents in Kozoji NT recognize the inconvenience of location and do not think of this NT as a permanent residence. However, this NT is attempting practical use of former residential structures. In addition, housing relocation in Kozoji NT is being undertaken actively, with particularly high rates for duplexes renovated as single-unit dwellings.
