At the beginning the Public Housing Law was enacted, the area of floor space of public housing unit was about 33m^2 (10 Tsubo) for the first class public housing. Today, after 25 years since then, it is about 60m^2. The aim of this paper is to clarify the role of the Public Housing on the dwelling condition, and also, to grasp the differencies of the Public Housing in different regions, namely, the local characteristics. The conclusions are as follows; 1. Because of the nature of this system which has been enforced by the same rule through-out the country, we can recognize little difference among the building levels of the Public Housing in different regions. 2. The level of the floor area of Public House is lower compared to that of the average citizens housing. However there are much differencies among its situations in each cities. In metropolitan Nagoya, the relative situation of the Public Housing on the dwelling condition is higher in comparison with other cities, and in the local rural city Ono, the relative situation of that is lowest. In middle size city Toyota and Fukui, the situation of that is between Nagoya and Ono. 3. The level of the Public House in metropolitan Nagoya are approximately equal to that of the privately-rented house, but in other cities that of the Public House are lower than even that of the privately-rented house.
