Abstract
The first purpose of this report is to classify the housing improvement behaviors through the residential mobility. The second purpose is to examine the social characteristics and locational conditions of households by types of the housing improvement behaviors. The third purpose is to analyse the various factors which are concerned with methods of housing improvement behaviors, by using Path Analysis. Conclusions are as follows, The housing improvement behaviors are classified into eight types, and each type is prescribed by the housing tenure, the housing demand and the housing improvement behaviors. Each type has its own characteristics in points of social and household characteristics, and locational conditions. And determinants of housing improvement behaviors are different among the improvement steps, and are different between the analysis on the desire for housing improvement and the analysis on the result of housing improvement action by the improvement steps.
