Numerical difference−JPY 1,971 / m²−JPY 1.971K / m²(−8.4%)

The official median uses 10 observation points. This is a numerical difference, not a discount or premium judgment, because official and transaction prices differ in timing, site selection and valuation method.

Age composition

January 1, 2026. Resident register, including Japanese and foreign residents. Percentages use the total population as the denominator.

pp = percentage points. Differences of ±5.0 pp or more (as displayed) are bold for emphasis, not an indication of statistical significance.

Japan uses the same reference date and population definition. Differences are percentage points, calculated before rounding; pp means percentage points. These are current age shares, not changes over time.

Some foreign-resident age details are withheld in the source, including the Japan totals. The difference from the population total is shown separately, without allocating it to age groups. Age shares exclude these unpublished details.

Rounded percentages may not add up to 100%. Age composition alone does not establish housing demand or a causal effect on land prices.

Household income distribution

2023 Housing and Land Survey. Annual household income in JPY, not individual salary. Shares use main households with known income.

Unknown-income residual (including rounding): local 7.2%, Japan 5.4%. Ranges exclude the upper limit. M = million yen; pp = percentage points.

These are sample-survey estimates, not a rating of residents or safety. Household size and age composition affect the distribution.
