Hidaka
8.2
Lower score (below 6)
Hidaka has a genuinely unusual character for a Japanese city — it hosts the Japan Racing Association's major training center, and the landscape is dotted with horse farms and stables, giving it an equestrian atmosphere you won't find anywhere else in Saitama. That said, the horse world in Japan is a very closed professional community with its own social structures, and the surrounding residential areas are typical commuter suburb. The horse culture gives Hidaka a specific identity but not one that benefits an outsider socially.
