Result shows that urban form is rather stable in city central area, but in suburban area where developed in recent years, vacant houses and vacant lots are rapidly increasing in connection to population decreasing. 5.We develop the district activation indicator considering life activity time, and evaluate activation level of each districts in current and future. Results shows that increase of elderly people doesn't mean directly fall of activation level. 6.We develop the indicator which shows room of city space considering maintenance cost of city space, and evaluate 52 population decreasing cities. Result shows load of maintenance city space becomes big in connection to population decreasing, and in some cities, space became surplus from a point of city space maintenance view. Less
