This review is presenting a new index which is named "Nuisance Index". The index is calculated as follows: the complaints against public nuisance from the public in the administrative community in the calendar year ÷ the income per person in the community in the calendar year. It is expressed per 10, 000 yen per person in Japan. From the result of analyzing relationship between nuisance index for each prefectures and income per person for the corresponding perfectures in 1964, it was recognized that coefficient of correlation between both events was + 0.8874. In other words, unfortunately the increase of cases of public nuisance in a community associates significantly with the insrease of income in the same community in Japan. In order to overcome the unwilling and contradictional situations in the present time, it is neccessary that both the public and the government should endeavor to prevent and to control public nuisances in the course of industrialization and urbanization of the community in Japan.
