Living in Okachimachi

A commercial and transport hub of Taito Ward between Ueno and Akihabara. Several lines including the Yamanote Line gather within walking distance, and the Ameyoko shopping street is attached, so the cost of living is low. Since it is in the middle of a lively district, it is hard to expect quiet.

It is a working-class lively district of Taito Ward served by the JR Yamanote and Keihin-Tohoku lines. The Ameyoko market is adjacent so it is lively, and Ueno is right next door. As a lively district it is crowded by day, and its commercial character is stronger than residential. Ueno, Tokyo and Akihabara are close, so it is a location where getting anywhere is convenient.
