Kichijoji / Tachikawa / Hachioji / Residents aged 40+ affordable share houses (lowest private-room price)

If you're looking for a share house with residents in their 40s or older in the Kichijoji, Tachikawa and Hachioji areas, the Tama and outer-ward areas are strong candidates, combining a calm age group with an affordable rent market.

Along the Chuo Line, Kichijoji and Mitaka offer excellent access to central Tokyo and everyday convenience, while venturing out to Hachioji, Machida and Chofu makes it easier to keep rent down even for a private room in a quiet living environment. Properties with many residents of the same generation share similar daily rhythms and make it easier to keep a comfortable distance among working professionals, which is another reassuring point.

• If you want to look at a broader age range, head to the list of share houses with residents aged 40 and over.
• If you value newer facilities, we recommend renovated properties in the Tama region and outer wards of Tokyo.
• If you want to soak leisurely in a bathtub, see share houses with bathtubs.
