Abstract
Housing demand survey 1993 contains useful informations about residents' mind. In midtown, detached houses, condominiums, rented condominiums and tenement houses were found. However, there are few that move in midtown detached houses, rented condominiums are too expensive, and midtown tenement houses are not large enough for families to settle in. So condominiums play an important part in maintaining the midtown population. But it seems to car owners that condominiums are only temporary housings. To promote midtown living, it is indispensable to cope with motorization.
