Living in Yachiyo

An agricultural town in the west of the prefecture, a quiet countryside area. There is no railway, so a private car is essential, and daily life depends on neighboring cities.

Yachiyo is an agricultural town in the west of the prefecture. There is no station in the town and Shimotsuma Station is 7 km away, so a car is essential. Mito is far at 57 km, while Ueno is 53 km and Tsuchiura is 30 km, so life heads south. Rice fields and farmland spread widely in a quiet countryside area, so rent and parking burdens are much lower, and it suits people who want to use a car and live in a large home.
