Tokyo Survey Book 1: an Overview of Towns Where Seniors Can Lead Tokyo Survey Book 1: An Overview Of Towns Where Seniors Can Lead Active Lifestyles ~ 23 Ward Comparison ~ Published November, 2008 / A4 Size 103 Pages There are approximately 1.34 million healthy, able-bodied seniors (65 and above) living in Tokyo’s 23 wards. Utilizing fixed quantity data that evaluates each ward from seven different angles, this report provides a relative assessment of living environments in which seniors can comfortably live. Though the results show differences in substance and degree, the report was able to ascertain that all wards offer attractive and pleasant living environments Aging in the 23 wards - In 2005 the population of seniors stood at 1.59 million, this is expected to increase by a factor of 1.4 over the next twenty years. - The percentage of the total population comprised by seniors in 2005 was 18.8%, a 5 percentage-point increase from 10 years ago. - Compared to 10 years ago, blocks and neighborhoods with seniors comprising 20% or more of their populations are widely spread across the entire 23 ward district (see Figure 1., Figure 2.). 35%~ 35%~ 30%~34.99% 30%~34.99% 99 99 Average of all 25%~29. % Average of all 25%~29. % 20%~24.99% 20%~24.99% 23 wards: 13.8% 15%~19.99% 23 wards : 18.8% 15%~19.99% 10%~14.99% 10%~14.99% ~10% ~10% Total population density: Total population density: Source: Population Census of Japan less than 1person / ha Source: Population Census of Japan less than 1person / ha Figure 1.

When looking at individual indicators, these wards also displayed areas of attractiveness; in Nerima “rent is cheap and golf driving ranges are not lacking”; in Edogawa “it is a safe place for walking, and one can experience a sense of openess when walking”; and in Setagaya “food prices are low, there is an abundance of greenry, and the area is very earthquake resistant”.

  • Katsushika Hokusai Born in 1760 and Died in 1849 in Edo, Japan
    1 Excerpted from Kathleen Krull, Lives of the Artists, 1995, 32 – 35. OLD MAN MAD ABOUT DRAWING KATSUSHIKA HOKUSAI BORN IN 1760 AND DIED IN 1849 IN EDO, JAPAN Japanese painter and printmaker, known for his enormous influence on both Eastern and Western art THE MAN HISTORY knows as Katsushika Hokusai was born in the Year of the Dragon in the bustling city now known as Tokyo. After working for eight stormy years in the studio of a popular artist who resented the boy's greater skill, Hokusai was finally thrown out. At first he earned his daily bowl of rice as a street peddler, selling red peppers and ducking if he saw his old teacher coming. Soon he was illustrating comic books, then turning out banners, made-to-order greeting cards for the rich, artwork for novels full of murders and ghosts, and drawings of scenes throughout his beloved Edo. Changing one's name was a Japanese custom, but Hokusai carried it to an extreme—he changed his more than thirty times. No one knows why. Perhaps he craved variety, or was self-centered (thinking that every change in his art style required a new identity), or merely liked being eccentric. One name he kept longer than most was Hokusai, meaning "Star of the Northern Constellation," in honor of a Buddhist god he especially revered. He did like variety in dwellings. Notorious for never cleaning his studio, he took the easy way out whenever the place became too disgustingly dirty: he moved. Hokusai moved a total of ninety-three times—putting a burden on his family and creating a new set of neighbors for himself at least once a year.

  • Urban Expressway
    Urban Expressway Roads for automobile exclusive use separated from open roads without crossing at grade are necessary to alleviate automobile congestion and eliminate through traffics from open roads. The Tokyo Metropolitan Government started the study in 1951, the Urban Expressway Network of 8 Routes, road with a length of approx. 71km, was approved as the City Planning for the first time in August 1959,and based on the recommendation for the construction of the Urban Expressway System by the Committee on Capital Construction in 1953, “Basic Policy for the Tokyo City Planning Urban Expressway” of the Ministry of Construction approved in 1957 and the consideration by the Task Force for the Tokyo City Planning Urban Expressway,. Since then, as there were additional new routes, extension of existing routes and a part of alignment change etc., the routes approved in the City Planning are 19 routes with 3 branch routes, of approx. 226km, as of Mar. 2013.
