Shinjuku / Nakano / Koenji / Residents in their 20s affordable share houses (lowest private-room price)

If you are looking for properties in Shinjuku, Nakano, or Koenji where people in their 20s are currently living, the best approach is to narrow your search based on both your commute and finding like-minded housemates.

Nakano, Koenji, Takadanobaba, and Ogikubo are just a few stops from Shinjuku and offer access to the JR Chuo and Sobu lines, making them ideal areas to keep rent affordable while staying connected to the city center. For those living alone for the first time or just moving to Tokyo, houses centered around people in their 20s tend to be more welcoming, as residents often share similar lifestyles and values.
