新旧住民の利用からみた集会所および公民館の性格 : 混住地域における居住環境整備の課題 その2

Abstract

In area where newcomers and natives are highly mixed up we investigated the present state of utilization of meeting places and public halls by newcomers and natives. The meeting places in town-block association, consisting of mostly natives, are used for various activities of locality groups in town-block association. Since these groups are mainly composed of natives and few newcomers join them, it goes necessarily that the meeting places are utilized mainly by natives and most of the newcomers don't have contact with them. The meeting places in town-block association consisting of only newcomers are very often used by many functional groups such as various circles or children's private schools. Particular people belonging to such circles rather often use them, however, other habitants have rare contact with them. On the other hand, public halls have been enlarged in their size in response to the population increase and located as the central facilities. Lending halls holds high rate, which offers.place to many kinds of circles mainly composed of newcomers. The rate of holding events sponsored by public halls is comparatively low and those who join them are mostly natives, especially old people. Both institutions don't work effectively enough as a place of association for newcomers and natives. It is necessary to realize public institutions which have middle feature between meeting places in town-block association and public halls as the central facilities.
