Abstract
The relation of site location and demand for the farm experience provided by urban farms is examined with the combination of questionnaire survey to the plot users and Small Area (Cho and Aza) Statistics of Population Census in Japan. Observation shows most users reside within 2km distance from the plots. The result of the log-linear estimation indicates that about 0.5% users are expected from the total residents live within 250m distance. Competition with closer sites reduces the demand for distant one although no such relation with adjacent allotment gardens was found.
