In the recent urban studies, the concept of “world city" has advocated, and there have been various studies on it. Especially,`Social polarization hypotheses' indicated that social strata will be polarized into upper and lower, has been analyzed by scholars in several ways.However, hardly any studies have been conducted that deal with the change of specific class, the middle class in the world city studies.Thus, this study has focused change of the suburban middle class family in the process of world city, taking the case of TMA (Tokyo Metropolitan Area). In this study, some social maps of 1) family type, 2) women labour, and 3) female part-time worker, have been examined.From the evaluation of social maps, I have acknowledged that until 1980s, a typical middle class family in the suburbs was run by the male full-time worker and the housewife. After 1990s, some middle class families in the suburbs were run by the male full-time worker and the female part-time worker.In conclusion, I regard this change of women labour as the strategy of the middle class family, confronting with the polarization in the process of `world city', and which is one of the patterns of “feminization of survival".
