The Purposes of this study are to identify the structural and whole features which the non-growing type cities are currently faced with and provide the positive data which can promote them to be changed into the growing cities.Most of Non-Growing Type Cities are the small towns which are not more than hundreds of thousands in populations and have the features including (1) continuous decrease in population (especially for young ages) and aging phenomena, (2) changing into nuclear family and a-few-children family, (3) concentration of lower residing class, (4) urban industrial lag and fiscal and budgetary shortage due to it, (5) weak educational and cultural base, (6) poor urban infrastructure, (7) sudden decline of downtown and 7) alienation of development opportunity according to the unbalanced development strategy by the government. Therefore the additional outflow of population should be prevented, and the strong polities are followed against the influx of the overcetralized population in the metropolitan area. In order for this, the development of industries, the growth in income through increased employment rate, improvement of educational and cultural service as a central function, created culture or tourism utilizing the cultural resources, fiscal and budgetary improvement and maintenance of urban infrastructure, centralized support by the central government are necessary. Thus the population settlement foundation of the non-growing cities will be established firmly, and ultimately will perform their roles as the small towns which are required in the urban system and be born as growing cities through getting the foothold for growth.
