Saku
8.0
High score (8-10)
Saku has a bullet train stop on the Hokuriku Shinkansen and has grown as the eastern gateway to Nagano, with about 100,000 people and a nationally recognized hospital cluster (Saku Central Hospital draws medical professionals from outside the region). Light industry and agriculture form the economic base but the infrastructure is solid. Accessible enough but not oriented toward outsiders. The bullet train access is the main practical advantage.
