One week has passed since the declaration of emergency was lifted in all prefectures including Tokyo, and have more people moved from Tokyo to other prefectures? As a result of analyzing with mobile phone big data, it was found that the number of people living in Tokyo who moved to other prefectures increased on Saturday and Sunday rather than weekdays, and it seems that movement for the purpose of sightseeing etc. is beginning to return.

Looking at the increase rate of people who moved from Tokyo on Saturdays and Sundays by prefecture, in descending order, 19% in Shizuoka, 18% in Ibaraki, 17% in Chiba and Tochigi, 16% in Yamanashi, and 15 in Kyoto. %, 14% in Nara Prefecture, and more in the suburbs of Tokyo and tourist destinations.
From the data, we can see that the movement for the purpose of sightseeing and leisure has started to return, mainly on Saturdays and Sundays.
