Although Tokyo ranks among the most expensive real estate markets, I’d argue it’s comparable to many mid-size American cities, and deals can often be found on the cheap side, whereas the US has seen the floor on rental prices skyrocket in the last decade. Places tend to be much smaller in Tokyo, but you can still find a studio for well under $1,000/month, which is not really possible where I live (Portland, OR). A studio in Shinjuku, one of the most central and popular wards, can be had for ~$1,000/month. https://blog.gaijinpot.com/how-much-is-the-average-rent-in-tokyo-in-2019/ https://blog.gaijinpot.com/how-much-is-the-average-rent-in-t...
