Since later 1980's, single woman households are on the increase of both rate and number in Tokyo area. Their residential choices are biased specific area where locates close to urban center and south-west part of inner area (Yamanote) especially at the age class of 35-44. With repeated short distance movement, they don remain within this area. They work hard, so they are back to home often after 11PM. Therefore they hate to spend their time and energy for commuting. But not a few of them are never high income. It makes them live in low level housing area. Middle-age single women stand as one of social minorities in Tokyo. They know they would be easy to live in where easy to access to their self-help network.
