Abstract
The purpose of these two papers are to investigate the relation between physical living environment and residential population in some patterns of housing districts. At first, we examine some patterns of old existing housing districts and select 10 objects from about 80 districts. This survey is based on extent of homogenious physical environment in 2〜5Ha, 200〜500 households. In the part (1), we give a concise report for survey results and refer the following subjects. (1) Method of survey and analysis In order to examine relation between residents and houses, we take the sensus of population and environment that based on official materials. Then we follow owner or renter, uses of house, conditions of environment etc to investigate the relation of residential structure. (2) Residential densities and living standard The density is a important parameter to assess the standard of living environment. There are two kinds of densities, one is the building-to-land ratio and another is total-floor-index. We take dwelling size for per resident (M^2/PERSON) to grade the residents' living standard. No matter where we survey there is a clear relation between density and standard that remain negative correlation. (3) Population structure Generally speaking, there are different composition of population between owner and renter, uses of house and conditions of environment. In this section, we examine above three subjects in details for the purpose of comparing the realities of old-existing housing districts and lately Planned housing estates (DANCHI).
