The price in context
The nearest official land-price benchmark is about 16,400 yen per sqm, roughly flat over five years (16,500 to 16,400), which the survey classes as stable.
The asking price works out at about 19,143 yen per sqm of land, 17% above the nearest residential benchmark of about 16,400 yen per sqm.

Area and hazard data
1 check clear, 2 to know about, 3 not checked. Each check is against a government map for this exact point. Where a map is missing or we can't use it, we say so; that never means there's no risk.
- Earthquake code Checked, clear
- Built to the current (post-2000) earthquake code
- Strong-earthquake chance Note
- About 13% chance of a strong quake (shindo 6-lower or above) in 30 years, mid-range for Japan, where most places sit between 3% and 26%
- 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.
- Tsunami risk Not checked
- We haven't been able to check tsunami risk here yet, but that doesn't mean there's no risk.
