What the data says

A growing population

Few abandoned homes

9.4% of homes were empty in 2023 (20.1% for the wider area), and 2.9% were empty without being for rent, for sale or used as second homes. Most empty homes here are rentals between tenants, not abandoned houses, a sign of a healthy market.

Moderate earthquake risk

The government's seismic model gives a 20% chance of shaking of intensity 6-lower or stronger in the next 30 years (20% for the wider area). Post-1981 buildings are designed for this level of shaking, but check ground conditions and insurance.

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.
