The population movement in Tokyo last month has been “excessive move-out” for 6 consecutive months, and even after the state of emergency is lifted, the move-out has continued to exceed the move-in.
The Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications says, "I would like to pay close attention to whether this tendency will take root."
According to the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications, the population movement in Tokyo last month was 26,220 in-migrants and 29,482 in out-migrants, and the number of out-migrants exceeded the in-migrants by more than 3,200. ..
In the same month before the spread of the new coronavirus, the number of in-migrants exceeded the number of out-migrants by more than 2,600, but since July last year, the number of out-migrants has continued except for a period of time.
The Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications says, "Even after the state of emergency is lifted, the tendency to move out of Tokyo continues, and I would like to pay close attention to whether the tendency to move out to the suburbs, avoiding overconcentration, will take hold."
