Structural Analysis of Evaluation of Living Environment by Difference of Social Capital

Abstract

In this study, we conducted a survey of residents' attitudes in Daijiji district, Morioka City, in order to examine the relationship between satisfaction with the district as a whole and satisfaction with the living environment, as well as the evaluation structure of the living environment, and the impact of social capital on these factors. The results of the analysis showed that the living environment items related to the overall satisfaction level of the district differed depending on the difference in social capital, and that the evaluation structure of the living environment also differed. The results also suggest that living environment items that are not significantly related to overall district satisfaction are related to overall district satisfaction through other living environment items.
