Abstract

This paper aims to clarify characteristics of land ownership of "un-urbanized" housing land developments in Tsukuba City, Ibaraki, which was permitted by Old Housing Land Development Law of 1964. The Old Law was abolished in 1968. Some areas of these developments show very low built-up ratio because of insufficient infrastructures in terms of sewage, drinking water and public facilities. There are three types of land ownerships in un-urbanized areas. Firstly, ownerships without any transfer except for inheretances and donations amount to 65 percent. Secondly, speculative purchases and selling amount to 18 percent. Third, housing land with residents amount to 18 percent.
