Lower score (below 6)
Higashisonogi is a mountainous rural district with fishing along Omura Bay and the ceramics industry as its main economic activities. No urban center, no meaningful nightlife, no international presence. The towns in this district are small and tight-knit in the way that rural Japanese communities are — functional for people born into them, inaccessible for everyone else.
