A magnetic memory device including a memory layer having a vertical magnetization on the layer surface, of which the direction of magnetization is changed according to information; and a reference layer provided against the memory layer, and being a basis of information while having a vertical magnetization on the layer surface, wherein the memory device memorizes the information by reversing the magnetization of the memory layer by a spin torque generated when a current flows between layers made from the memory layer, the nonmagnetization layer and the reference layer, and a coercive force of the memory layer at a memorization temperature is 0.7 times or less than a coercive force at room temperature, and a heat conductivity of a center portion of an electrode formed on one side of the memory layer in the direction of the layer surface is lower than a heat conductivity of surroundings thereof.
