If you want to commute to Tokyo while keeping your rent down, private-room share houses in the Yokohama and Kawasaki areas are an excellent choice.

Kawasaki and Musashi-Kosugi offer easy access to Shibuya and Shinagawa via the Tokyu Toyoko and JR Nambu lines with minimal transfers. Yokohama is a major hub served by the Tokaido, Keikyu, Sotetsu, and Blue lines, making it convenient for travel not only to Tokyo but also toward the Shonan and central Kanagawa regions. Rent is generally more affordable than in the city center, making these areas ideal for those looking to balance their commute with their cost of living.

A City with Tourist Spots and Nature - Kanagawa: Living Environment and Share Houses

While some share houses in Kanagawa are small-scale, renovated private homes, many are medium-sized or larger, either purpose-built or renovated from corporate dorms and apartments. Concepts are diverse, including women-only, single-parent friendly, those with yoga studios or vegetable gardens, and pet-friendly options. Many feature spacious and well-equipped common living areas.

Many residents commute to Tokyo, and the area is served by a vast number of lines, including the JR Tokaido, Yokohama, Shonan-Shinjuku, Yokosuka, and Nambu lines, as well as private railways like the Tokyu Toyoko, Odakyu Odawara, Keio Sagamihara, and Keikyu Main lines, plus the Yokohama Municipal Subway. The Enoshima Electric Railway, known as "Enoden," also runs daily from Fujisawa to Kamakura.

Kanagawa, located south of Tokyo, has a vast area. While Kawasaki and Yokohama are highly urbanized, the central areas around Sagamihara and Ebina are plains with many corporate facilities, and the western part features the Tanzawa Mountains and Hakone. The southeastern part opens up to the Shonan area, which includes famous tourist destinations like Kamakura and Yokosuka. A share house is the perfect way to get to know Kanagawa deeply♪
