Shiranuka
7.4
Lower score (below 6)
Shiranuka on the Kushiro coast has a specific economic character unusual for a small town — it has oil and natural gas wells producing from the onshore Shiranuka oil field, one of the few active petroleum production areas in Hokkaido. The town of around 7,000 has the infrastructure for energy production alongside fishing. The energy industry doesn't create social openness; the community is working-class and closed.
