Seven years passed since the Great East Japan Earthquake struck on March 11, 2011. The stricken area is slowly recovering, and the political interest in reconstruction is gradually fading. A aim of this paper is to describe the mutual assistance environment of the nuclear refugee in 2017.
Based on the results of our hearing survey, the residents' association in the temporary housing estates where the nuclear refugee lives in has a trouble to have few officer candidates and some of these are forced to dissolution. Those most were organized by pressure from the outside and a resident having more resources can exit earlier.
The organization which some evacuees living in post-disaster public-funded rental accommodation (Minashi Kasetsu Jutaku) formed does not have the function of the community enough. The collaboration of them and inhabitants and them who lives in the municipality accepting refugees was insufficient, too.
As a conclusion, their mutual assistance environment is getting worse than before. We make use of this lesson and must investigate the problem in the longterm refuge.
