Abstract
This study was performed to investigate the awareness of Namak Eco-city, a willingness to move to an ecological city and their related variables. Data was collected through a questionnaire survey given to 491 residents who live in Mokpo, Kwangju and Muan in Chollanam Province. The awareness of Namak Eco-city was medium level and half of the respondents were not aware of that. Multiple regression analysis was conducted to estimate the effects of the variables on the awareness of Namak Eco-city. The most significant variable was the awareness of taco-city. Thirty eight percent of the respondents were willing to move to Namak Eco-City. Two variables were related with willingness to move to the city. Those who were aware of an Eco-city and had more commuting-oriented housing value had more willingness to move to the city.
