Voice of area responsible
As someone who is in charge of the Chiba prefecture area, I often hear people say, ``Even though it's close to the city center, I can live comfortably.'' Especially in the Urayasu and Ichikawa areas, if you use the Tokyo Metro Tozai Line or Keiyo Line, you can reach Nihonbashi or Tokyo Station within 30 minutes. Maihama, where Disney Resort is located, is also nearby, so you won't have any trouble finding leisure on your holidays. In addition, areas such as Funabashi and Tsudanuma are full of large shopping malls and restaurants, making life very convenient. Chiba Prefecture is an attractive option for people who are looking for a comfortable lifestyle while commuting to Tokyo.
