The price in context

The nearest official land-price benchmark is about 3,650 yen per sqm, down about 6% over five years (3,880 to 3,650), which the survey classes as declining.

The asking price works out at about 10,685 yen per sqm of land, 193% above the nearest residential benchmark of about 3,650 yen per sqm.

Area and hazard data

5 checks clear. 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.
