Betsukai
7.6
Lower score (below 6)
Betsukai in the Nemuro subprefecture has more cows than any other municipality in Japan — the dairy industry here produces a significant share of Hokkaido's milk output on a town of around 16,000 people. On clear days you can see the disputed Kunashir Island (Russian-administered, claimed by Japan as the Northern Territories). The town's entire social life revolves around the dairy farming calendar and the tight-knit farming community. Russian proximity has historically added a small fishing-trade element but nothing that creates openness to outsiders socially.
