三重県 消滅可能性都市の現実４選〜中心市街地の景観から今後を見つめる〜（『人口戦略会議』2024年より）

Hello everyone, this is Taka-sim. This time, I'm presenting a city introduction/walkthrough video of the urban areas of Shima City, Owase City, Kumano City, and Toba City in Mie Prefecture, which were among the cities at risk of extinction announced by the Population Strategy Council in 2024. We'll look at the current landscape of the central urban areas and then consider the future. The news regarding "cities at risk of extinction" announced in 2024 states that many municipalities in Japan may disappear in the future. This analysis focused particularly on the decline in the female population aged 20-39. It is reported that 744 municipalities nationwide may become "municipalities at risk of extinction" by 2050. In these municipalities, the young female population is predicted to decrease by more than 50%. Newly defined categories such as "black hole-type municipalities" are also attracting attention. "Municipalities at risk of extinction" refers to municipalities where the female population aged 20-39 will decrease by more than 50% over the 30-year period from 2020 to 2050.
