I think this headline is misleading in 2 ways.

1. yes you might get a house at this price but it's either 1-2 hours out of the city center (which is fine, just saying Tokyo is large.) Or alternatively it's in bad neighborhoods. (bad is relative if you are from the US)

2. your house will most likely look like this: https://www.ii-ie2.net/dat/5ba1164d.jpg

Sayonara sunlight, hello neighbor.

here are listings: https://www.homes.co.jp/smp/kodate/shinchiku/tokyo/list/

there are nice ones in the list. I am just saying that this is the eastern country side of Tokyo (check the map) when the title probably makes everyone think something different.
