This study focuses on the difference of going-out activities and social interaction between the residents of an inner-city temporary housing and those of suburban one in City I in Fukushima Prefecture. As results of the structural interviews to 48 residents, it was found that residents of the inner-city temporary housing went out as often as suburban ones, and both had similar level of communication with localities. In inner-city temporary housing, residents were able to determine individually ways to go and communicate, while some unsociable ones tended to be left isolated. In suburb, temporary housing residents had limited opportunity to go out because of traffic restrictions, thus they tended to communicate mainly with each other. Many of them did not want local acquaintances.
