Ikebukuro is one of the three major metropolitan sub-centers along with Shinjuku and Shibuya.
It is a big town in Toshima-ku which is famous nationwide because it has downtowns and there are famous universities such as Rikkyo University.
Toshima-ku has the highest population density in the Tokyo 23 wards.
Of the three major metropolitan sub-centers, Ikebukuro’s rent is relatively affordable compared to Shinjuku or Shibuya. It has become a popular area that is ranked 1st in the list of towns where Japanese people want to live for 3 consecutive years.

■What town is IKEBUKURO?

Ikebukuro became bustle place with many people with the opening of the Kikuya Department Store (later Seibu Department Store) in 1933. The opening of the said department store triggered that the Tokyo Tram (Tokyo Shiden) started to drive into Ikebukuro and the town flourished as a transportation terminal.
After the World War II, Tobu Department Store opened its main store in Ikebukuro and Seibu Department Store acquired Tokyo Marubutsu Ikebukuro Store then changed its name to PARCO. And now it has grown into one of Tokyo’s leading downtowns.

■International city of arts & culture TOSHIMA

Ikebukuro has many companies as business bases, while there was a problem that the number of office buildings was small. However, ongoing redevelopment is increasing the number of office buildings and this problem is being resolved.

In addition, the number of people flowing into Ikebukuro is expected to increase due to the development of arts and entertainment facilities such as theaters and international schools. It can be said that this is the target area when investing in real estate.
If you are considering real estate investment in Tokyo, why not look for a property in the Ikebukuro area?
