TRANSPORTATION & COMMUTE

Transportation on foot to the nearest train or subway station which can be found on most property floor plans is calculated at around 80 meters a minute. Japan has one of the world's most efficient public transportation systems with the longest number of railways in the world.

Subways and train stations can be found in every city and affect the pricing of many properties. Manny stations also have supermarkets, convenience stores, post offices and banks near-by.

Travel time between most stations is approximately 2 minutes. Another not so common means of transport in Tokyo is the bus system which should be taken advantage of because of their good service and recent addition of traffic light regulators which allow the bus driver to control the traffic signal changes at most junctions to ensure that the bus is on schedule.

Taxis are a common sight in Tokyo especially in the evenings and the fare starts from 710 yen for the first 2 kilometers with increments of 80yen thereafter. Taxi doors open automatically for passengers.
