Land barely below 1991

On the government's fixed benchmark sites, Miyazaki's residential land is only 8% below its 1991 level, the third-closest to its bubble-era value after Okinawa and Fukuoka. That is not because of recent growth: land has been flat for ten years. Miyazaki simply never had much of a bubble.

Flat condos, rising houses

Condo prices per m² have barely grown over the last five years, and Miyazaki City's are about 5% lower. Houses tell a different story: the median house price rose 25% between 2023 and 2025, and the price per m² about 16%, partly from newer houses selling and partly from rising building costs.

A retirement and relocation destination

Miyazaki's mild climate and low cost of living attract retirees and people relocating from big cities, but the population still fell 4.7% between 2020 and 2025. 9.9% of homes are abandoned.

Hazards

Miyazaki faces a 34% chance of 6-lower shaking within 30 years. The August 2024 Hyuga-nada earthquake triggered the first Nankai Trough "megaquake advisory". About 23% of benchmark sites are in tsunami inundation zones along the Pacific coast.

Median price per m² by yearHouses are the better deal on space — A m² of house floor space costs about 53% less than a m² of condo, even though the house price includes land. If you need room more than convenience, a house buys considerably more space. That gap has widened over the decade as condo prices pulled ahead.

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.
