Funny because the rest of us living in Japan but outside of Tokyo think that Tokyo is expensive while we sit in our new construction suburban home with a mortgage under 80,000 yen a month.

Pretty sure it wasn’t very affordable before the bubble burst 3 decades ago. There is a whole sub-genre of Japanese youtube videos dedicated to suburban real-estate investments that went belly-up
