Living in Azabu-juban

Azabu-juban is a central part of Minato Ward where the Tokyo Metro Namboku Line and the Toei Oedo Line meet, a quiet and safe neighborhood with a dense concentration of embassies and upscale housing. It takes about 10 to 11 minutes to Shinjuku without a transfer and 21 minutes (one transfer) to Tokyo Station, so access to office districts is excellent. Old shopping streets dating back to the Edo period coexist with top-end supermarkets, making daily life convenient, but rents are among the highest even in Tokyo, so it is hard to approach unless your budget is ample.

It is an upscale residential area of Minato Ward served by the Tokyo Metro Namboku Line and the Toei Oedo Line. Quiet and safe thanks to its many embassies, it also has the charming Azabu-juban shopping street, combining sophistication with everyday convenience. Rents among the highest in the city are a clear burden. Roppongi and Shibuya are close and the environment is safe, so it is especially favored by expatriates and foreign families.
