The purpose of this study is to make clear how most of the troubles which occur among the residents in apartment houses are caused by their unneighborliness, which is caused by insufficient community space : in other words, how the degree of neighborliness depends on the amount of the community space in the apartment house. The resurts are as follows : 1) Those who live in the apartment house in which apartments are connected not by corridors but vertically by stairs have better neighborliness than those who live in the one with corridors, elevators and balconies. 2) In the latter type apartment house, more, more troubles occur between the family living on the upper floor and the one living right below than those living next door to each other on the same floor. 3) More intimate relationship among the neighbors causes less trouble. 4) Consequently, it is advisable to provide apartment house with more community space, which is somehow like a private area, such as stairs and landings.
