Where is the safest place to live in japan? |
Travel Info I have always wanted to live in Japan but the natural disaster rates discorage me. is there a place in Japan where the rates are minumum and i wont have to worry about it ? Travel Tips As far as natural disasters are concerned, no place is safe. A typhoon can hit Okinawa and all four main islands. An earthquake can also hit anywhere in Japan. Major snowstorms can also hit the Tohoku region of Honshu island and Hokkaido (the northern most island). Japan is prepared for natural disasters and make buildings as safe as possible. Weather forcasters also give weather updates frequently so just watch NHK when expecting a typhoon so you know how and when to plan. Others It's really hard to say but I would venture to guess Okinawa. I recommend the country area. For example, SHIKOKU area or HOKURIKU etc... The principal cities(KANTO area or KANSAI area) have many people and many danger. The countries have the rich nature and kind people. I also recommend island of Japan. There are very peaceful. In Japan, big city is too high rates. For example Tokyo, Sapporo, Nagoya, Kobe, Fukuoka...any more. But some country side is a little ceep; bisides it is almost safty. So especially, I reccomend to Chiba prefecture or Shizuoka prefecture. Those prefecture is near in Tokyo and prices isn't high. Earthquakes are the main natural disaster risk in Japan. Although they can happen virtually anywhere in Japan, some areas are considered more earthquake-prone than others (see the link below). Typhoons and floods are an annual occurrence, but they are generally not life-threatening unless you happen to live near the bottom of a mountain, where there could be landslides. If earthquakes worry you a lot, you should think twice about living in Japan. http://www.asahi.com/english/herald-asah... not tokyo. not Sapporo. Not Okinawa. Ehime is good place 2 live. also Hiroshima, Kyoto, Oosaka. |
