- Landslide risk Not checked
- We haven't been able to check landslide risk here yet, but that doesn't mean there's no risk.
- Flood risk Not checked
- We haven't been able to check flood risk here yet, but that doesn't mean there's no risk.

Source: Estimated from year built
A pre-1981 build predates Japan's current earthquake code, which can matter for insurance and renovation. We flag the era from the year built where we have it.
