Lease termination and residential movement by households under the housing lease program for disaster victims in Iwate Prefecture
Following the Great East Japan Earthquake, the housing lease program for disaster victims provided private rental houses as temporary housing to those affected by the earthquake. Many victims had to change the municipalities in which they lived when they moved into these rental houses. To examine the influence of these movements on where rebuilding occurred, data concerning lease terminations in this program in Iwate Prefecture were analyzed. Approximately 80% of the households left the leased houses, generally 2 or 6 years after the disaster. A total of 60% of households that moved to other municipalities under this lease program have not returned to their original municipalities.
