What the data says
A shrinking population
The population fell 3.5% between 2020 and 2025 (−1.2% for the wider area). Moves in and out roughly balanced in 2025. Households still grew 2% as people live in smaller households, which supports demand for smaller homes even as the population shrinks.
Typical vacancy
8.8% of homes were empty in 2023 (11.8% for the wider area), and 6.1% were empty without being for rent, for sale or used as second homes. The level of abandoned homes is around the national norm.
High earthquake risk
The government's seismic model gives a 56% chance of shaking of intensity 6-lower or stronger in the next 30 years (56% for the wider area). Check the building's earthquake standard (post-1981, ideally post-2000 for wooden houses) and consider earthquake insurance.
Official land prices are edging up
On the government's fixed benchmark sites, which are valued the same way every year, residential land prices changed +2% in the year to January 2026 and +8% over five years. Because these sites don't change, this is the cleanest measure of land value trends.
Some flood or landslide exposure
Of the official land-price benchmark sites here, which sit in typical neighbourhoods, 14% are inside the worst-case flood zone (14% with expected depths of 3 m or more). Most worst-case flood zones are shallow (under 0.5 m) at the edges, so depth matters as much as the share. Check the hazard map for any specific address before buying.

About this data
Figures are medians of real transactions reported to Japan's Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism (MLIT) through its quarterly price survey.

The latest quarters are preliminary and are revised as more survey responses arrive.
