Mikasa
6.9
Lower score (below 6)
Mikasa is a former Sorachi coal city that's reinvented itself around its paleontological heritage — the Mikasa City Museum houses marine fossils from the Cretaceous period when this area was a shallow sea, and the city has been designated part of the Sorachi-Iburi Geopark. Population has declined to around 10,000 from a coal-era peak and the town has the faded-boom-town character common to the Sorachi coalfield. The fossils are genuinely interesting; the social environment is not.
