In recent years many new cities have been born and many old cities have expanded their city areas by absorpting their sorrounding rural villages. In such a new city area, consumers keep their rural living conditions and rural consumer habits still now. Some local cites came in contact with each other. From the viewpoint of urban geography, the relation between the city boundary and the extention of the retail trade area is the most important subjects to desolve. So the author adopted the following subjects;
1) The factors which restricts the geographical extention of retail trade area. The extention of retail trade area depends upon the conditions of trafics or transportations between the shopping center and consumers dwelling places.
2) Relation between the extention of the retail trade area and administrative boundary.
Extention of city area resulted in confining daily movement to consumers into the city area, and the influence of retail trade area collides with each other directly.
3) Contact of two city boundaries. Some examples are found in the case of local small cities, in which retail trade area accord with city boundary approximatly.
The author tried to illustrate the relation between the extention of retail trade area and city boundary on the case of two local small cities, i. e. Fukuchiyama (popul. 61, 800) and Ayabe (popul. 53, 000) in Kinki District in Japan. In these cases, two retail trade area contact with each other along with the city boundary. This is proved in quantity by the table which shows the havitual purchasing place at the two Azas neighboring the city boundary.
