Setagaya Appeal

The city of Setagaya has developed as a residential community that features an abundance of greenery and water. Setagaya is built upon a rich legacy of traditional culture created by its residents, fosters an environment where residents have easy access to cultural activities and sporting events, and is filled with excitement. It is a city with a great deal of intrinsic appeal, and it is continuing to grow and develop.

We hope that it will help residents rediscover the best of Setagaya and help enhance everyday life here. Likewise, we hope that it will encourage those from other parts of Japan and all around the world who are unfamiliar with Setagaya, to come and get a taste of this great city.

We will all continue to strive to make Setagaya the best place to raise children in Tokyo, and a safe and comfortable city where people will want to stay forever.
