Meanwhile, here in Tokyo, a 100sqm lot goes for $700.000, an hour away from work.

I can’t help but be a bit jealous, but it was really interesting to hear how different things can be.

Aren't things cheap if you go well to the west, almost to the coast and away from a rail station? Japan has rural areas. If people would live there, they could afford to have large families.
