Hello!
I will be moving soon northeast of Osaka/south of Kyoto. Specifically, I need commutes to Osumi and Shimokoma to be reasonably short. I think this effectively means living on the Katamachi Line, ideally at Rapid stop.
The other major constraint I have is that I would really like to have very close access to the outdoors (trail running, hiking, etc).
With those constraints, my current thinking is that probably means Katano (Kawachi-Iwafune). However, I was hoping to get any advice folks may have about areas I may be missing.
Do you have any suggestions for alternative areas I should consider, given these constraints?
