Yokoze
7.3
Lower score (below 6)
A small mountain town of about 8,000 in the Chichibu mountains, known for limestone quarrying and some outdoor recreation. The economy is extraction-based and the population is aging. As far removed from social opportunity as anywhere in Saitama — genuinely one of Japan's quiet mountain backwaters.
