In suburban residential area, we can easily find a lot of vacant houses where no one lives and the some owners are looking for renters. However, the actual condition of utilization as rented house, particularly the relationship with vacant house, is not clear. We consider that vacant houses and rented houses are closely related in the changing process of suburban residential areas developed in 1960's or 1970's. This paper aims to clarify the characteristics of present vacant houses in such areas and changing process of their utilization through analysis of real estate registration. Findings are as follows, 1) About 56% of the present vacant houses were used as rented house in the past. 2) This rate was higher than the rate in the residential area up to now. 3) The number of rented houses decreases and the number of vacant houses increases in 20 years.<BR>These findings suggest that the utilization as rented house is the previous stage to vacant house. But, it did not become vacant house until recent years because of using as rented house, even if the owner didn't live in.
