From the 1980s, jotoshiki itself has become rarer for various reasons, such as the increase of prefabricated houses and the decrease of people's mixing with neighbors, but mochimaki is still held as a happy event in shrines' festivals, local communities' festivals, and some universities' festivals.
1980年代以降、建て売り住宅の一般化、近所づきあいの希薄化などのため上棟式自体が減少したが、餅まき自体は神社や地域の祭り（ごく一部の大学祭でも見られる）などの際に、祝い事として広く行われている。
