The third one is based on the Housing and Land Survey conducted in 2013,

According to the results, the number of households that were relocated
because of the earthquake was about 329,000 as of Oct. 1, 2013. Around 40%
of them reported that it had become impossible for them to stay living in their
original houses (Figure 5).
This kind of analysis and publication was conducted not only by the SBJ
but also by the statistical organizations of other Ministries. For detailed
information, please refer to the dedicated page on the SBJ website (Statistics
