研究の概要(英文)：Recently, local governments are actively involved in "city promotions" as part of its regional development. However, there are few models. Local governments are attempting to simply adopt and imitate little success examples. Despite the fact that each region has its own set of unique local resources and competitive advantage factors. In the backdrop, this tendency originates from the fact that local governments does not realize of the accurate inventory of region's resources. In this research, we developed indexes that the regional resource would be clearly identified at the initial stages of a city promotion. As a first step, the city promotions were categorized using target and achievement as its reference. Of the categories we identified, we validated a sample of the "residential model" city promotion. The "residential model" targets the region's attractiveness as a location of residence, and that would serve as its index. We pick up Toda City in Saitama Prefecture as a regional to verify and we did the actual calculations, and examined the results. The reason that picks up the city, it started the "residential model" city promotion recently.
