In a long-run, population decline might possibly solve the urban problems since 1960's, but it might generate a various problems in a short-run. Although the most existing economic models presume urban growth, the shrinking process is not reverse of the growth, and its dynamic aspects are much more essential. This study is aimed at the multi-faceted approach to the problems of population decline, which includes theoretical analysis on de-urbanization of residential districts and consolidation of supply facilities, as well as estimation of urban amenities and data necessary to conduct the multi-regional cohort analysis at the census tract level.
