This paper aims to clarify the relationship between the urbanization of Tokyo and the serious housing problem that occurred during and after World War I. The direct factor responsible for the serious housing shortage in the city was the sudden rise of architectural costs during World War I. Further indirect factors included the relatively lower house rent that could be charged and the rise of land rents in the city. On the other hand, stable housing supply in the suburbs, which was the cause of elastic rent setting, the reduction in the risk of vacant housing, and the abundant supply of housing sites absorbed excess demand in the city. These factors brought about a sprawl of housing development and also a fall in housing quality at the same time. These problems were the inevitable result of the workings of the housing supply mechanism in the absence of housing policies. In conclusion, the housing problem was solved by sacrificing the location choice and housing quality of the tenant dweller.
