SUPPORT FOR DUAL-HABITATION BY LOCAL GOVERNMENTS: Based on the questionnaire targeting local governments that are members of promotion councils such as nationwide dual habitation

ABSTRACT

This study aims to grasp the situation of supports for dual-habitation by local governments. We conducted a questionnaire survey for local governments. As a result, many supports were about set up a consultation desk and utilization of subsidies. On the other hand, it was useful to set up a dedicated homepage, provide unoccupied house bank and places for employment and community exchange. In addition, we confirmed the growing interest due to the Covid-19 pandemic. It was found that support for dual-habitation requires not only support for the houses, but also the realization of new work styles and regional exchanges. © 2023 Architectural Institute of Japan.
