Tamura
8.6
High score (8-10) · Your profile
Tamura city east of Koriyama includes the Abukuma Cave — a stalactite cave system that draws domestic tourists year-round and creates some non-local visitor traffic. Parts of Tamura's eastern areas were in nuclear evacuation zones but the main city maintained function through the crisis.
Mid score (6-8)
Tamura city of about 36,000 covers a large area with the Abukuma Cave as the main external draw. Cave tourism is the one real point of outside engagement. The rest of the city is agricultural and light manufacturing with standard provincial social dynamics.
Lower score (below 6)
Tamura's nuclear evacuation zone history in its eastern areas added stress to an already rural and insular community. The social scene is thin and Abukuma Cave tourism is family day-trip oriented. A foreign man here needs Koriyama as his social base.
