The purpose of this study is to investigate the relationship between historical changes of 'Administrative Sphere (AS)' and local 'Facility / Service Sphere (FSS)' according to field works carried out in Kagoshima-Prefecture. This is a first step for reaching the Method of Sphere Establishment on the Local Facility Planning. This paper can be divided into two contents; 1) To research about historical conditions of AS, 2) To research about present'conditions of FSS; therefore, we show the coordination of them through their comparison. As a result of those analyses, we made it clear, that almost FSS in Kagoshima-Prefecture are greatly influenced by the Administrative Districts (the 'City-Country-Area' in particular) and the formation processes of them; while is more when are influenced within an old Administrative District.
