  To be honest, it's not really to the 'segregated' level. It's not like one building for foreigner and the other for Japanese. Officially, it's illegal to deny rental based on nationality. In reality, you don't want to live in an apartment if the owner doesn't want you there anyway, even though you could push for it in the court.
