With a view to ascertaining how students live in the regional community and clarifying the factors for students to be able to take an active part in activities as a member of the community, this research focuses on relation between a university student who lives alone and neighborhood association which is part of the communication system linking the municipality and its residents. The investigation was made in November-December 2007 in a central district of Nara City, and the findings are as follows: 1. The university student had little contact with the neighborhood association. 2. There was little opportunity for the students to join the regional association. 3. There was no common view that existed between the association chairman and the student. 4. The two parties, however, shared an interest with respect to the association membership as well as revamping the community. 5. It is, therefore, desired that the university should encourage students to learn to live with the community.
