The questionaires are collected from the Komatu river basin in 1985 and 1989 to investigate the inhabitant senses for the river environment in an urban area. These data are anayzed by the Quantitative and Mathematical Methods. From the analysis, the followings are clarified: i) The inhabitants prefer the familiarity with water to the flood control. ii) The preference is essentially unchanged with time and depends on their inhabited district. ii) They are sensitive in the sense to the improvement of their life circumstances.
