What the data says
Prices are still rising, but more slowly
Growth has cooled to about 1.5% a year, down from 3.7% a year in the previous five years. This looks more like a maturing market than a turning point, and it gives buyers a bit more room to negotiate.
Outperforming Hokkaido
Per m², houses here are 98% above the Hokkaido average. The premium has grown from 68% ten years ago, so Kiyota Ward, Sapporo City has been outperforming its surroundings.
A family market
93% of recent condo sales have three or more bedrooms. Demand comes mainly from owner-occupier families, which tends to make prices steadier but rental yields lower.
Sales are thinning out
Transactions are down about 24% on the previous three years. Fewer sales mean less choice and slower resale, so allow more time to sell later.
What a typical purchase costs
Half of all house sales last year were between ¥17.0M and ¥36.0M. Listings outside that range are either unusual properties or worth a closer look.
A shrinking population
The population fell 3.9% between 2020 and 2025 (−4.6% for the wider area). Moves in and out roughly balanced in 2025.
Few abandoned homes
7.4% of homes were empty in 2023 (15.6% for the wider area), and 2.1% 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.
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 (11% for the wider area). This is low by Japanese standards, although no part of Japan is free of earthquake risk.
Local incomes are close to average
Taxpayers in the city as a whole reported an average taxable income of ¥3.6m in 2023 (¥3.4m for the wider area). That is +20% since 2014. Averages are pulled up by a few very high earners, so a typical household earns less than this.
Official land prices are still falling
On the government's fixed benchmark sites, which are valued the same way every year, residential land prices changed 0% in the year to January 2026 and +45% 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, 13% are inside the worst-case flood zone. 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.
