Abstract
This paper discusses 1) the influence on the returnees' dwelling life brought about by different housing policies and the degree of repletion of facilities by local governments, and 2) the direction of dwelling life of returnees from China.
The survey results are as follows :
There are some differences of quota for allocating dwelling in the public housing operated by local government; for those returnees residing in areas where the said quota is small or nil, neither the rate of allocation nor the level of satisfaction in the present living condition is very high. The returnees have little chance or venue of communication with other returnees, and there is no way to communicate freely with neighbors for those who are not yet capable of speaking Japanese. For improving their dwelling life, it is hoped that special quota of public housing is given to the returnees and that arrangements are made for the returnees to meet and communicate periodically.
