What the data says
A shrinking population
The population fell 5.1% between 2020 and 2025 (−4.9% for the wider area). Moves in and out roughly balanced in 2025. Households still grew 1.6% as people live in smaller households, which supports demand for smaller homes even as the population shrinks.
Typical vacancy
10.8% of homes were empty in 2023 (15.6% for the wider area), and 7.2% were empty without being for rent, for sale or used as second homes. The level of abandoned homes is around the national norm.
Lower earthquake risk
The government's seismic model gives a 3% chance of shaking of intensity 6-lower or stronger in the next 30 years (10% for the wider area). This is low by Japanese standards, although no part of Japan is free of earthquake risk.

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. House prices per m² divide the total price (land and building) by the floor area. Medians based on fewer than 20 sales are not shown. The latest quarters are preliminary and are revised as more survey responses arrive.
