IntroductionSection 0-1 Background and Purpose of ResearchRecently, Japan has been facing the problem of population decline. There is an increasing ratio of older population to younger population. It is expected that Japan will have to be more open to immigration in order to handle its work load. As a result, immigration law is currently changing in Japan. It is easier to get a permit (similar to the U.S. VISA) now, as there are new types of permits. There are many more immigrants now in Japan than in the past. Because this trend is so recent, the Japanese people, including the government, are still fairly ignorant of the foreign communi-ty. For the purpose of this paper, “community” is a term used to describe a group of people which meet, and does not refer to people living in the same area who do meet. “Cluster area” is used to describe people of one race living in the same area. Most foreigners live in Tokyo, as it is the economic center, and has the most services like public transportation, and a few foreigners live in the country side. It is becoming necessary to increase understanding and acceptance between the Japanese and the foreign community. It will require a lot of compromise to develop rela-tions between the Japanese and the immigrants. The research for this paper centers on Tokyo 23 Wards as this area has the highest number of immigrants, and studies the government administration programs for helping them. It also looks into the charity assistance dedicated to the foreign community, and how the foreign community is organized.

Section 0-2 Research Methods and OrganizationThis paper shows the result of research on the situation of the foreign community in Japanese society. This paper will show the date regarding the immigrants in the 23 Wards: Section 1 will discuss the general back-ground and purpose. Section 2 will cover the assistance programs avail-able to them. The immigration information for Section 2 was obtained from the Offices of Immigrant Registration in each ward, as well as the main Tokyo Immigrant Registration Office. Information from a govern-ment endorsed charitable foreign assistance group was obtained as well. A classification of community type and cluster area will be explained in

Section 3. Section 4 will contain an analysis of the foreign community based on their classification. Section 5 will show the top seven states for immigration and explore the issues existing between the Japanese and foreign communities. Finally, Section 6 will be the conclusion.

Section 1 The Situation of Foreign in The 23 Wards of TokyoThis section contains an analysis of immigrant information: background, permit type, etc.

Section 1-1 Background and Purpose of ResearchSection 1-1 discusses the Situation of The 23 Wards of Tokyo. Figure 1-2 shows the immigrant population in Tokyo. Figure 1-3 shows a breakdown of immigration population by ward. Tokyo is the number one state in Japan for immigrant population with 350,000 immigrants. The top five states have more than half of the immi-grants in Japan. Most of the foreigners in Tokyo live in the 23 Wards. The immigrant population is rising in every ward.

Section 1-2 Background of ForeignersFigure 1-4 is a comparison of the foreign population in Tokyo from 1981 to 2004. Figure 1-5 is a breakdown of the immigrant population by pur-pose of immigration. Figure 1-6 shows the percentage of immigrants by their permit type in 2006.We can see that during the years that Japan has experienced economic difficulties, the number of immigrant jobs did not decrease. In addition, we can classify the immigrants into two groups: old comers and new com-ers. Old comers are immigrants from before the San Francisco treaty of 1952 and their descendents. All foreigners lost their citizenship in 1952. Those who migrated to Japan relatively recently are in the newcomer cat-egory. Immigration law is a key factor on what kind of immigrants come to Japan. As an example, the number of Brazilians who migrate to Japan varies drastically as the laws change (see Figure 1-5). In 1995, the Japa-nese passed a law restricting the number of performers that could enter the country. This caused the number of Pilipino immigrants to drop a lot.

In 2004, the refugee application was changed, causing an increase in Bur-mese immigrants coming to Japan.In the last few years we have seen a big increase in the number of for-eigners coming to Japan to study or attend a trade school. The percentage of immigrants in 2006 who took Permanent Resident (including normal and special permanent resident) in Japan is 40.2%, which is 837,521 peo-ple.

Section 1-3 The Number of Residents of Each Nationality Living in To-kyo’s 23 WardsFigure 1-7 shows a tendency of immigrants to cluster together within a ward. As a result, different wards have different groups of foreigners.

Section 1-4 Conclusion of Section 1The laws dictating the number of immigrants allowed for each permit type control the country’s immigrant growth. The research of this paper shows a breakdown of new comers by permit type. Every year, the num-ber of immigrants taking Permanent Residence in Japan increases. Also, the number of naturalized citizens of Japan from Korean or Chinese in-creases every year. Therefore, the people who take temporary residence in Japan are staying longer than in the past. These facts could indicate that Japan is a more attractive option for people to live in than in the past, or that the laws are less restrictive, or possibly both. In any case, the immigration laws are certainly less restrictive. The newer policies regard-ing immigration favor those staying in Japan longer. Usually short term foreigners in Japan do not participate in regional activities such as com-munity events or meetings. Because of the new policies for longer term foreigners and the higher participation of the immigrants in the communi-ty, the relationship between these immigrants and Japanese people might improve. Immigrants of a certain nationality tend to cluster together with-in a ward. However, in some wards, many races live together. This gives each ward unique characteristics.

Section2 Government Administration ServiceThis section contains research and analysis of the government services for Tokyo, the 23 wards within it, and the organization officially endorsed by each ward.

Section 2-1 Tokyo Local Government ServiceTable 1 shows the government services for immigrants in Tokyo. Recently, the Tokyo government has begun having Tokyo residential meetings for immigrants to improve the services provided to immigrants, and inform

the immigrants of the services available to them. Literature is distributed to the immigrants, such as the Foreigner Worker Employment Manual, to prevent illegal immigration, and the Foreigner Worker’s Handbook. The Police Department and the Ministry of Justice are concerned that the in-crease of government activity to help foreigners will also increase foreign criminal activity because of a higher immigrant population. Table 2 shows the organizations which are part of the Tokyo International Exchange Association, and the services they provide. In April of 2003, the projects of international exchange or International corporation were transferred from Tokyo International Foundation to Tokyo by becoming officially en-dorsed by the government. Tokyo set up the Tokyo International Exchange Association in its office and begun to extend their services. The purpose of the association is to provide services to immigrants, and deepen mutu-al understanding between Japanese residents and foreigners by hosting events which both Japanese and immigrants can attend.

The Tokyo International Exchange Association hosts meetings for mutual cooperation between the various organizations both inside the associa-tion and out, and they make lists of organizations so that they will be able to contact each other. They also created the Foreigner Consulting De-partment, for immigrants to talk about the problems they face. There are consulting windows for the immigrants to go to meet someone face to face, as well as events that immigrants can attend where they can meet a network of professionals for assistance. The Tokyo International Exchange Association also endeavored to promote the network of internatinals.

Section 2-2 Services for Immigrants in Each WardInformation in Table 3 was collected from interviews in the local govern-ment offices in each ward. There are not enough workers to handle the workload, so the services are restricted. There were only two people in some offices. Sometimes the wards work together with affiliated volun-teer organizationsor outsource services provided. The offices in each ward provide nearly the exact same services. As a result, they lack the ability to handle the unique needs of their own district, which might have a different pop-ulation mix than other wards. Volunteer organizations usually operate independently, rather than in cooperation with other organizations. Creat-ing a network to connect these organizations should be a priority for local government.

Section 2-3 Unique ServicesFigure 2-1 shows unique services. All of them cater to the needs of the ward, rather than simply mirroring the services of the other ward.

Section 2-4 The Conclusion of Section 2The services in Tokyo and in each ward are increasing. Tokyo is passing laws to make it clearer for employers to know how to hire foreign workers legally. The result should be an increase of employment of foreign work-ers. The government services in each ward are influenced by the number of workers in each department, the existence of affiliate organizations,

and the number of foreign residents in each ward. The services in each ward have some commons. There is a restriction of services in each ward due to a limited number of workers in each ward. Therefore, many of the services are outsourced to nonprofit organizations.

Section3 Foreign CommunityThis section contains research and classification of the foreign community and the area they gather in.

Section 3-1 Cluster by NationalityFigure 3-1 shows the relationship between the areas. Table 4 shows the differences between Indian and Korean immigrants, why they came to Japan, and the area they live in. Research indicates that immigrants from the same race tend to cluster together. The process of collecting data for this paper indicated three Korean cluster areas, two Indian cluster areas, and one French cluster area. The areas which had Koreans had many signs written in Korean. Korean stores and restaurants were numerous in this area. However, the areas of the Indian communities looked similar to the rest of Japan, with only a few Indian restaurants. This difference is related to their background and purpose. The establishment of a cluster area is influenced by the history and environment of that area. The development occurs over a long period of time and changes gradually, as similar people are attracted to the area. The exception is Edogawa 1 Chome, where the Japanese forced the Koreans to move. Part of what makes a community develop is when acquaintances, friends and family move nearby. Even if a foreigner has no acquaintances, he is more likely to move near others of his race. The area of a cluster is an ideal target for advertisement for that race.

Section 3-2 Community in The Wards Table 5 shows the basic information found in each community. The re-search is based on relatively new communities because most of them are new communities in the wards. These communities actively seek to build relationships with the Japanese community. There is a lot of demand for

new communities due to immigration of foreigner of various nationalities. The immigrants of each community always have some purpose for com-ing to Japan, which means they have a need to interact with the Japanese people.

Section 3-3 Distribution and Background of Method of CommunityFigure 3-2 shows the result of the analysis of the distribution and back-ground of immigrants from Sections 3-1 and 3-2. The factors of distribu-tion and background of the establishment of the community are influ-enced by demand (needs of immigrants), and purpose of the community. People that place value on giving and receiving aid for daily life (borrow-ing a cup of sugar or asking information of stores, for example) tend to live near each other, whereas those that simply share a common purpose may not require this proximity. If a community was developed through advertisement, then its range depends on the content of the advertise-ment as well as how wide spread the advertisement is. The expansion of a Japanese initiated foreign community depends on the community’s purpose. For this reason, a Japanese community or one started through advertisement may or may not live in close proximity to each other.

Section 3-4 Outline of Clustered Areas in The WardsTable 6 shows the cluster areas found in the wards. Table 7 shows the current issues of Edogawa 1 Chome.• There are several factors which play into how a cluster is formed. o Okubo-Korean TownAttractions to Koreans include clusters of other Koreans, a lot of churches, a good public transport system, and many Korean restaurants and stores. Many communities are formed here, such as the Kanjin community and Shinjuku mukuge community. o Kimuchi alley in Daito wardMany Koreans live here. There is a good public transport system and many Korean restaurants and markets. This is just one street in Daito ward. Both of these areas might expand in the future, as Koreans contin-ue to move to them.

o Indian community in Edogawa wardIndians gather here because of the Indian community and good public transportation system. Most of the Indians here are IT technicians who work in the town of Ote, which is easily accessible train from West Kasai, Edogawa ward. This is the reason the Indian community initially began here. o Shinjuku-sasatsuka, French areaThe French gather here because of a Japanese-French school. Most of the French population is near the school.• Japanese created community: mandatory method: This is a com-munity formed when Japan forced immigrants to move. o Edagawa 1 chome in Koto wardTokyo is developing the seaside and other areas nearby, but is currently making no improvements to this area, so the buildings and roads are old. Relations between Korean and Japanese resident in this area are favor-able, so there is little need for themed communities to improve them. Edagawa 1 Chome had three main issues, but only one remains. This issue is the need for a new school building. Part of the issue involves a need for re-zoning. Together, the Korean and Japanese residents made a formal demand for re-zoning.

Section 3-5 Characteristics and Classification of Community and Cluster AreasFigure 3-3 shows the classification of communities and cluster areas. The cluster areas are classified according to the process which established them. The cluster area establishment process can be broken into two methods: natural establishment and Japanese establishment (establish-ment forced by the Japanese government). The communities are also formed in three methods: natural establishment, Japanese establishment (Japanese encourage to establish a foreign community), and advertise-ment.

Section 3-6 Conclusion of Section 3Now, it is clear how cluster areas and communities are formed, and the

relationship between the two has also been uncovered. Classification of cluster areas and communities is similar, but the content is different.

Section 4 Themed Community OutlineThe size of a community and the method of establishment are both factors in how much interaction they have with the Japanese. Based on the classification in Section 3, this section is an analysis of communities researched.

Section 4-1 Themed CommunitiesTable 8 shows the main summary of the communities researched. Table 9 shows how active a relationship they have with the Japanese. Their relationship with the Japanese varies greatly based on how they were formed and how big they are.

Section 4-1-1 Natural EstablishmentTable 10 shows the background of members of communities formed by natural establishment: their demand a community, what it is that they need and why. Immigration law, and changes to it play a major factor in these communities because it controls the flow foreign populace enters the country, they are looking for help, and communities are naturally formed.• Indian community in Edogawa ward (large, active with Japanese): Figure 4-1 shows the Indian community system and how it functions. The Indian community system is built on sharing information. Both in-formation and questions are sent by email to all members on the distri-bution list simultaneously. Everyone reads it, and someone who knows the answer can respond. The Indian community is there for work, and is therefore taking residence in Japan temporarily. As a result, there is a re-spectful distance maintained between the Indian and Japanese residents, which eliminates a lot of friction. The Indian community is large due to a high demand for work.• AUN (small, active with Japanese): This is a collection of several small communities led by the Burmese community in Japan. Refugee

Support Association is a nonprofit organization led by Japanese to assist this community. They hold workshops in which leaders from about thirty small communities participated for the refugee populace where they can learn about medical services and the legal situation in Japan. The com-munity primarily consists of Burmese, but is open to all foreigners. The refugees have to keep their whereabouts secret from their home country, so information is difficult to obtain from them. This limits the assistance they can get from the refugee support association.

Section 4-1-2 Japanese Establishment• Shinjuku-Mukuge community (small, active with Japanese): In the Yotsuya ward center, a Japanese teacher working as a volunteer asked the Korean students if they wanted to teach Korean to the Japanese. The stu-dents discussed it with their friends, and a community was created where Koreans began teaching the Korean language to Japanese. In February of 2007, they named the community Mukuge community. They begun a trial class, which consisted of 10 students. The trial was a success, so they had a second series of sessions from December of 2007 to March of 2008.

Section 4-1-3 Advertisement• Niji community (small, active with Japanese): This community was organized by Korean women in Japan. These women come to Japan for marriage or work, or were born in Japan. The group is for Korean wom-en who feel lonely, helpless, or just want to participate in some activity. Common activities include socializing with Japanese people, socializing with other immigrants, going to events, or studying together. Advertise-ment for this community is in the Ota and Minato wards, well as Kawasaki city. Most of the members live in the Ota ward and Kawasaki city. There are plans to expand in the future.• Doho community (small, active with Japanese): This is a commu-nity of Chinese immigrants who gather to consult each other and have lectures for the purpose of remembering China.

Section 4-2 Conclusion of Section 4Figure 4-2 shows an analysis of the community’s and cluster area’s size and interchange with Japan. The size and activity of each group depends on the people’s background, purpose, and demand, as these three things are the biggest factors deter-mining the identity of the community or cluster area. The purpose affects how actively the group communicates with the Japanese, the demand af-fects the size of the group, and the background affects both. Government administrative policy is a major influence on the foreign community.

Section 5 Analysis of Foreign Community and The Issues Which OccurThis section will discuss the issues arising between the Japanese and the foreigners, and the existing services to deal with them.

Section 5-1 Comparison of The Korean Cluster AreasFigure 5-1, 5-2, and 5-3 show Korean stores in Okubo Korean town, Kimuchi alley in Daito ward, and Edagawa 1 Chome. A comparison of the Okubo and Daito areas reveals a big difference in the type of stores found because of differing histories and land characteristics. Edagawa 1 Chome is unique because it has a unique history, as the Koreans were forced to move to the area. The buildings there have unique characteristics, there is a lot of municipal housing, as well as very old-style homes and floor cov-erings (a row house with ten-tatami, a type of Japanese style floor which also implies size of room ). Building codes (coverage ratio) were ignored, and the area is generally crowded.

Section 5-2 The Issue of Concession, or Right of Use of Land in Edagawa 1 Chome, in Koto WardFigure 5-4 shows the problem area in Edagawa 1 Chome. In 1995, Tokyo was going to make improvements to the area, including maintenance, but the issue of the right of concession arose. In 2000, the Japanese govern-ment put the land up for sale at 7% of the value. In 2003, Tokyo demol-ished part of the Tokyo Korean #2 elementary school building because part of the building was on land belonging to Tokyo, and Tokyo required

the use of the land. Tokyo filed a suit against the Korean school for com-pensation for use of the land, as the contract for use of the land ended in 1990, and no payments had been made since that time. The suit was for 400,000,000 yen, the equivalent of $4,000,000. The trial continued for 3 years and 3 months, during which the media widely covered the issue in both Japan and Korea, gaining the support of the Japanese and Korean

people for the school. In 2007, a settlement was reached for 170,000,000 yen, or $1,700,000, which the school paid.

Section 5-3 Contact Between The Foreign Community and The Surround-ing Japanese ResidentsTable 11 shows the main problems foreigners have in Japan. Interview research indicated friendly relations between the foreign com-munity and the Japanese, as they greet each other warmly. The Shinjuku ward wanted their foreign and domestic residents to have a symbiotic relationship, so they conducted research to determine how the Japanese residents and the immigrants viewed each other. They determined that the foreign residents felt a lot of prejudice from the Japanese in many situations. In addition, the Japanese felt that the immigrants were bad mannered and had many criminals. A questionnaire distributed to both the Japanese and foreign populace yielded many inconsistencies in the answers.

Section 5-4 Government Administration and CommunityFigure 5-5 shows the result of a questionnaire regarding events in Shin-juku for immigrants. The services for immigrants in Shinjuku are increas-ing, but there is little awareness of these services, so participation is low. The Niji community has been refused to put advertisements for the community in some offices.

Section 5-5 Conclusion of Section 5In this section, the results of the Japanese and foreign relationship is clarified. Foreigners tend to view Japan as the coldest country. There are many problems that immigrants face, and prejudices to overcome. The government administration is increasing services and attempting to consider immigrant problems, but immigrants are fairly ignorant of the available services.

Section 6 Overall ConclusionThese are the topics which were covered and clarified in this paper. The

overall situation of immigrants was explained by increasing number of immigrants, background of immigrants, and cluster areas. The problems government administration has were defined by government administra-tive services, the service of each ward, and the service of each nonprofit organization.The found communities and cluster areas of background, purpose of establishment, details, size, activity, etc, and distribution were discussed, and the characteristics of the methods of establishment were shown. The characteristics of each community were compared by classification, and the factors related to size and activities in each community were proven. Each cluster areas were compared, and the problems between Japanese and foreigners were shown. The government administration and commu-nities were analyzed, and the relationship between foreign communities and Japan were defined.

Comparison of RaceThe racial majority in Lancaster County and Lincoln is white.

The percent change by race between 2000 and 2010However, if you look at the percent change of race, you can see which races have rapidly increased.Two more races could increase quickly because this category would include any mixed races. As long as the category of Some Other Race has such large change, we need to know the majority population contained under the Some Other Race category.

RaceAccording to the U.S. Census Bu-reau, “Some Other Race” includes all other responses not included in the White, Black or African American, American Indian or Alaska Native, Asian, and Native Hawaiian or Other Pacific Islander race categories. Respondents reporting entries such as multiracial, mixed, interracial, or a Hispanic or Latino group (for exam-ple, Mexican, Puerto Rican, Cuban, or Spanish) in response to the race question are included in this catego-ry.

Comparison of Hispanic or Latino and Not Hispanic or LatinoThe population of Hispanic or Latino has been increasing. It has nearly doubled in the last ten years.

The percent change by Hispanic or Latino (any race) and each ethnical categories of Not Hispanic or Latino between 2000 and 2010One of the reasons American Indian and Alaska Native, Native Hawaiian and Other Pacific Islander, and Some Other Race have increased is the Hispanic or Latino population. As a result, the increment of these three races is much higher than increment of these three races which is not Hispanic or Latino. On the contrary, Asians are less likely to be Hispanic or Latino than other races. According to the Census Bureau, nationally, 97% of Some Other Race is Hispanic or Latino. We can probably say the majority in Some Other Race in Lincoln and Lancaster County is Hispanic or Latino because there are huge differences in percent change between Some Other Race including Hispanic Latino and Some Other Race Not Hispanic or Latino.

Age and Race Comparison

White: The age distribution of the white population is nearly the same as the total population because it is the majority race. The peak of age co-hort is 20 to 24. As you saw, eighty seven percent of the total population is white. This would be largely due to the college population, but also co-incides with the Generation Y boom which in general is more pronounced among the White population.Black: The Black population has younger people and fewer older people than the age distribution of total population.American Indian and Alaska Native: This is a similar trend to the Black population.Asian: The peak of age distribution is 20 to 29 because there are many Asian college students, many of which are from abroad.

The Median Age for the Some Other Race Popu-lation is 24.9 years old

The Median Age for the Total Population is 32.6 years old

Age and Race Comparison

Native Hawaiian and Other Pacific Islander: This age distribution is inter-esting because this is a very sporadic distribution with very little pattern. Other races were similar to the age distribution of total population, but this is totally different. This is largely due to the extremely small Native Hawaiian and Other Pacific Islander population. Just a few people or fam-ilies can make a very large impact when they come or go.Some Other Race: The population of Some Other Race has a unique pop-ulation curve with two peaks.Two or More Races: The population of Two or More Races is very young and follows a natural curve.

Age Distribution of Hispanic or Latino and Not Hispanic or Latino

Hispanic or Latino: The Hispanic or Latino population is young compared to the total population. There are 2,278 people in Lancaster County in the Hispanic or Latino under 5 age cohort, which represent 13.7% of the total Hispanic or Latino population in Lancaster County for 2010.White (Not Hispanic or Latino): Due to the size of this population, it is very similar to the distribution of total population. However, there is a lower percentage of young people and slightly higher percentage of older people.Black (Not Hispanic or Latino): This is the same as the age distribution of Black or African American.American Indian and Alaska Native (Not Hispanic or Latino): This shows young American Indian and Alaska Native are likely Hispanic or Latino. The younger population of American Indian and Alaska Native which is not Hispanic or Latino is much lower than younger population of Ameri-can Indian and Alaska Native.

The Median Age for the Asian/Not His-panic or Latino Population is 28.7 years old

The Median Age for the Native Hawai-ian and Other Pacific Islander/Not Hispanic or Latino Popu-lation is 31.2 years old

The Median Age for the Some Other Race/Not His-panic or Latino Population is 21.9 years old

The Median Age for the Two or More Races/Not Hispanic or Latino Popu-lation is 13.7 years old

Two or More Races: The age distribution of Two or More Races is almost same as Two or More Races, Not Hispanic or Latino. The races which have higher percent change in the past ten years seems to be distributed by younger population. This result makes us think there would be much more these races in our future. In addition, any races except white have a younger median age than the median age of total population. And the younger median age of a race is the higher percent change they will have.

Hispanic or Latino Population The Mexican origin has become stronger among the origin of Hispanic or Latino population. Central American origin has been increasing a lot as a Hispanic or Latino origin likely due to smaller numbers in 2000 relative to Mexican. According to Adriana Garcia’s report, Non-Hispanic whites will become a minority in the United States by 2050. She writes, “Of the 117 million people added to the population in this period due to the effect of new immigration, 67 million will be the immigrants themselves and 50 million will be their U.S.-born children or grandchildren.” According to Census Data, this is already happening in California. The population of Not Hispanic or Latino White in California is 14,956,253. The total population in California is 37,253,956. The Not Hispanic or Latino White population is only 40% of the total population in California. According to CBS News, “as recently as 1970, non-Hispanic whites accounted for nearly 80 percent of the state’s population.” The United States has followed this trend. We are clearly able to see this trend in Lincoln and Lancaster County as well, but there is still a strong white majority in Lincoln and Lancaster County.

Housing Characteristics Part One The non-institutionalized Group Quarters population has been growing and scattering throughout the community. Much of this has been due to the new student housing at UNL and Nebraska Wesleyan since 2000. Pop-ulation in Group Quarters has increased more in Lincoln than in Lancaster County overall. Non-family households will likely continue to increase in the future based on trends. We do not see much change of house-hold size and family size between 2000 and 2010. There was much more change between 1990 and 2000.

Households CharacteristicsThe majority of Householders are White, but there have been significant increases in other Householders. Minority Householders are increasing more rapidly than White Householders. It is also worth noting here that the “White” (and all other populations) includes Hispanic or Latino, so their increases are even less indicated on these graphs. More than half of householders do not have a spouse. The economic situation in America may be a factor of influence on these changes. It appears that some peo-ple have started living together with their grandparents, parents, grand-children, and other relatives. The relationship between households and people living within households has become more complex. While this appears to be a new trend in habitation in Lincoln and Lancaster County, this increase is still only small in scale. It is difficult to predict how this trend may or may not continue with the uncertainty of the economy.
