Wakō
7.6
Mid score (6-8) · Your profile
Wakō directly borders Tokyo's Nerima and Itabashi wards and is home to Honda's major R&D center — Honda Research Institute Japan employs significant numbers of engineers and researchers, giving the city an unusually educated and tech-forward professional demographic for a Saitama border town. The Tobu Tojo Line and Yurakucho Line connection to central Tokyo is direct, which means residents function as Tokyoites who pay Saitama prices. Women here are professional, educated, and Tokyo-connected — which means more interesting but also higher standards than anywhere else in Saitama outside the capital city itself.
