What the data says

What a typical purchase costs

Half of all house sales last year were between ¥29.0M and ¥45.5M. Listings outside that range are either unusual properties or worth a closer look.

A shrinking population

The population fell 2% between 2020 and 2025 (−1.2% for the wider area). Moves in and out roughly balanced in 2025. Households still grew 1.2% as people live in smaller households, which supports demand for smaller homes even as the population shrinks.

Few abandoned homes

7.9% of homes were empty in 2023 (11.8% for the wider area), and 1.6% 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.

High earthquake risk

The government's seismic model gives a 65% 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.

Local incomes are close to average

Taxpayers here reported an average taxable income of ¥3.9m in 2023 (¥4.1m for the wider area). That is +11% since 2014. Averages are pulled up by a few very high earners, so a typical household earns less than this.

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 +1% 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.

Little exposure to flooding

Very few of the official benchmark sites here fall in flood, tsunami or landslide zones, so most typical neighbourhoods are outside mapped hazard areas.

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.
