Abstract
In Osaka Metropolitan Area, the percentage of occupied apartment houses supplied by private enterprises of the housing supply is increasing rapidly, especially in recent ten years. In this paper, I report the tendencies of allocation, allocation pattern, and housing level of the occupied apartment houses supplied by private enterprises. By this study, I found out that the allocation area is extending to inner city and urban fringe from some specific areas, allocations in industrial district is increasing, and building bulk is highest in commercial district. And in inner city, the size of sites is almost small-especially in commercial district, the size of dwelling unit is also smaller than in other areas.
