It is well known that the population in the suburban area around the city of Tokyo grew rapidly between the 1900s and the 1930s, especially right after the Kanto Earthquake in 1923 and that many new residential districts were developed then. The aim of this paper is to show not a few people moved to suburban area at that time by checking the addresses, occupations and income taxes of the people who were listed on the 1921 version and 1931 version of a famous who's who called "Jinji-Koshinroku". The number of the people who lived in Tokyo Prefecture and who were carried on the 1921 version of "Jinii-Koshinroku" is 6,672. Checking their addresses and occupations, it can be clear that there was a tendency that places to live in were connected with those to work at : many wealthy merchants lived in Nihonbashi-ku, many businessmen in Shiba-ku and not a few bureaucrats in Kojimachi-ku. And around 1921, not a few people who belonged to the middle class already lived in Toyotama-gun, one of the counties surrounding the city of Tokyo. Out of the 6,672, 3,497 were listed on the 1931 version of "Jinii-Koshinroku". Among them, 2,184 were selected as valid samples to be inspected. 1,256 out of the 2,184 persons did not change their addresses. 928 did. 47 % of them moved outwards, only 10 % inwards. Many among the people that emigrated from the city of Tokyo to its suburban area were businessmen, bureaucrats and officers, who belonged to the middle class and whose income was not so big. The suburban districts where many moved in at that time were Shibuya-cho, Yoyohata-cho, Sendaeaya-cho, Nakano-cho in Toyotama-gun.
