I've never been to Japan, but I imagine that a bad Japanese neighborhood is incredibly safe compared to a bad U.S. neighborhood. In a bad U.S. neighborhood one has to regularly take precautions in order to not be physically assaulted or even killed by other people.

Looks pretty amazing for less than $1000/month.
That said, of course I'm not thinking that Japan is some paradise. What I hear/read about their justice system and their stifling conformist culture doesn't sound very good to me.

- jbay808 6y agoTheir conformist culture is upsetting, as is the rampant institutional sexism, but a lot of the issues with their justice system are overblown. 99% conviction rates are more likely a result of cases being dropped below a high confidence threshold, not a result of kangaroo courts.
