In this paper, We attempt to make clear how to district which consists of occupied apartment houses supplied by private enterprises extends with spatiality in urban area, considering of Kind of City Planning Area, sites for apartment, land prices, distance from CBD and so on. Main findings obtained from analysis are as follows. 1. Construction of them is begun from the area appresiated that it is in good surroundings (both of social or physical environment) for the residential district of inner zone and its surrounding area. 2. At the same time that the number of them increase in the area where construction has been started, because of the long-term erection, supplying them is begun around the district. 3. The area where they are built extends around the station or in the district which is very convenient living, e. g. shopping. 4. Construction of them is begun in the area with the low price of land so that they can be purchased at a low price. As a result, building them is started even in a residential district or an industrial district, therefore the area supplied them spread.
