Kodaira City is located in the Tama region of Tokyo, and is an attractive area with a lush living environment and calm townscape. There are spots full of nature, such as Tamagawa Josui and Koganei Park, where you can enjoy the scenery of each season. On the other hand, you can easily access Shinjuku and Tokyo by using the Seibu Shinjuku Line, Seibu Tamako Line, or JR Chuo Line (transferring to Kokubunji). There are supermarkets and shopping streets around the station, making life convenient. This area is recommended for working adults in their 20s and 30s who are looking for a relaxing lifestyle away from the hustle and bustle of the city center.
Kodaira
Voice of area responsible
When I'm in charge of Kodaira City, I often hear people say, ``It's rich in nature and it's a comfortable place to live.'' In particular, the area around Hana-Koganei Station is a calm residential area with many parks and green areas, creating a relaxing environment. Also, if you use the Seibu Shinjuku Line, you can go to Shinjuku in one line, making it convenient for commuting to work or school. Koganei Park and the promenade along Tamagawa Josui are popular with people who enjoy jogging and walking, making it a great place to relax on your days off. It is attracting attention from the younger generation as an area that is easy to get to the city center and yet allows you to live peacefully and feel close to nature.
