Hi all!
I accepted a job near Shibaura Park (closest stations being Mita and Tamachi) and would love advice on neighborhoods for housing.
My budget: 150-170k JPY, maybe 180k if the place is perfect. I’m Japanese and am fluent so I’m hopeful to stay in this range.
Commute: ~30min door to door (it takes like 8min walking to get to our office from the stations and I’d go in 3x a week).
What I’m looking for: 1 LDK or 2DK, separate B/T/S, at least 30m, natural light, ideally renovated but doesn’t have to be. I’d love where I’m living to feel like it has good access (to other parts of Tokyo), not sleepy/old but not too crazy chaotic.
About me: I’m a 26F who likes to go to cafes, bookstores, thrift, shop, cook, explore, etc. and I want to do that where I live. I consider myself an ambient and will be coming from the US so would love to be somewhere where I can find community.
I’m thinking Daikanyama, Nakameguro, Ebisu, Omotesando, Fudomae, Musashi Koyama, Nishi Koyama, Meguro, Togoshi Ginza work well, but open to others. Also if you like(d) your building, names welcome too!
