In Chuo-ku, we announce the permanent population as of the 1st of every month on our website.
As of January 1, this year, the number was 174,074, the largest population was renewed for the first time in 70 years.
The largest number so far was in January 1953, when reconstruction progressed rapidly after the war.
It was 172,183, which means that it exceeded this number.

In the past, while offices and commercial buildings were built during the period of high growth, residential areas decreased.
Due to soaring rent during the bubble period, rent increased, and in 1997, the lowest level ever was recorded in 1997.
I had fallen to 72,090 people.
However, when the floor area ratio of condominiums was eased in the 1990s, the Gulf Coast was moved.
Housing supply due to construction and redevelopment of tower condominiums, mainly in the area, etc.
It has increased. In addition, move to the city center in search of "proximity to work and residence" to reduce commuting time.
The new residents are also believed to have helped the population recover.
For example, in the Kachidoki area, the population was about 9,000 in 2000, but in January this year, the population was about 9,000 in 2000.
The number has increased from about 27,000 to about 4,000 in the Harumi area to about 18,000.
