Sekikawa
7.2
Lower score (below 6)
Sekikawa is a mountain village near the Yamagata border with a population under 2,500 that is steadily dropping as young people leave. The hot springs draw weekend visitors from nearby cities, but the social scene is essentially nonexistent outside of that. The village goes quiet by early evening and most of what is here is built for domestic retiree tourism. Complete rural isolation if that is what you want; irrelevant otherwise.
