Living in Hatagaya

A quiet neighborhood for living alone at the western edge of Shibuya Ward, just 4 minutes from Shinjuku on the Keio New Line. Sandwiched between Sasazuka and Yoyogi-Uehara, once you step off the main road, alleys and shopping streets with an old working-class feel continue, and there are so many supermarkets that it is convenient for managing a household alone. However, the Koshu Kaido main road near the station has traffic noise and some stretches become deserted at night, so it is not a full-fledged entertainment district.

A quiet neighborhood for living alone in western Shibuya Ward on the Keio New Line. Access to Shinjuku is fast, and being between Sasazuka and Yoyogi-Uehara, rents are reasonable for the city center, while shopping streets and supermarkets make daily life convenient, so it is a good place for single-person households. However, the station is small and there is no big entertainment district, so you use neighboring areas for shopping and nightlife. It suits single-person households who want a city-center commute together with a calm living environment.
