Regarding the senior citizens' housework in Hirose-cho Yasugi City, I tried to find out in what manner the role which husband and wife play in their daily life varies according to the number and age of the family members. The result is summarized as follows:1)The senior citizens living alone are doing housework by themselves. However, those aged around 70 and over come to be more dependent on others in more matters and greater degrees.2)In the family of a senior citizens' couple living by themselves, cooking, washing, and cleaning are in general considered to be wife's job whereas heavy physical work such as airing bedding, taking care of garden trees and sweeping outdoors are considered to be husband's job.3)In the care of senior citizens living with their children and grandchildren, some of them are doing less housework than a senior citizens' couple living by themselves. Many of the husbands are taking case of garden trees whereas wives aged between 65 and 69 are doing the housework to the same extent as wives living with their husbands only. However, from around 70 years of age, they, in doing their housework, begin to depend more on those they are living with.
