Research Abstract |
Selecting Tokyo's 23 wards as the study area, this research examined accessibility to child-care centers which can indicate both quantitative and spatial mismatches between the supply and demand of child-care centers. The results showed that many areas of Tokyo's 23 wards had accessibility values below one, indicating a supply shortage. The survey results indicated that accessibility to child-care centers played an important role in balancing work and child rearing.
