This study examines the impact of JR West’s Predetermined-Section Season Ticket (“Kikkake Area Pass”) on the outing behavior of rental housing residents and their experiences in areas around train stations. The analysis indicates that the program encourages more frequent outings and a broader range of activities. It appears to foster the formation of new habits at specific stations, promotes walking in station vicinities and between stations, and facilitates social interactions through railway use, thus enriching daily life. While some participants supported continuing the service on a paid basis, concerns about cost-effectiveness were raised by those with infrequent usage. These findings suggest a more flexible system accommodating varying usage patterns and travel purposes.
