Abstract

In local cities of Japan, suburbanization makes moving difficult for aged People. Making train service level better is important for formation of compact city. However, there is no study that clarifies the relationship between aged population distribution and promotion of train stations. Then we constructed the spatial date of aged population distribution and train stations in Japan, France and Germany to understand the aged population distribution around stations according to train frequency. As a result, compared with France and Germany, there are less stations with high train frequency in high aged population density areas in Japan. Then, as train frequency is high, there is a trend that aged population around stations increases and percentage of aged population decreases. Finally, in Japan, aged population around stations has not been increasing, and the trend is strong instations with high train frequency.
