Urakawa
7.1
Lower score (below 6)
Urakawa is the cultural center of the Hidaka horse country at around 14,000 people. The Urakawa Red Cross Hospital serves the wider Hidaka region, but the town's identity is horse breeding — the Urakawa Horse Riding Club and the surrounding Thoroughbred stud farms make this the epicenter of the Japanese horse racing industry's production side. Horse industry insiders from around the world pass through for sales and farm visits, but this doesn't create general social openness. The town has some nightlife adjacent to the horse industry social life but it's not accessible to an outsider without industry connections.
