This study is based on the opinion surveys and interviews conducted in 2002 and 2007 for the residents of an apartment building district (Tumur Zam [No. 2] in Bayangol District)located in central Ulaanbaatar, a city in which the trend toward greater urbanization and fixed residence has been progressing. Changes over time in the correlation between activities and attitudes with regard to lifestyle and community were verified in order to obtain basic knowledge regarding the creation of living and residential environments in urban areas in Mongolia. The study found that, when attitudes toward lifestyle and community, community and joint management & operation and meeting and special event activities are taken as a whole, awareness of fixed residence on the part of the apartment dwellers has been enhanced with the passage of time. The study also found that the community (relations with neighbors) within the apartment building district has tended to stagnate and few residents feel that there is an advantage to communal living in the apartment building, and that there has been a decrease in the evaluation of joint activities and joint work activities and the desire of residents to participate in these activities.
