@yanarchy What’s SF?

@yanarchy Dunno, not in central Tokyo, but I can afford a 102 square meter condo here and would probably not be able to do that in SF.

@yanarchy Minato-ku is nuts, everywhere else is pretty reasonable.

@yanarchy Nah, Tokyo isn’t bad when you consider there aren’t any really dangerous areas and the the public schools don’t rely on local tax. We bought a house on the east side, 5 minutes from the Yamanote line, for a fraction of what that would cost in SF, NYC, Boston or Chicago.

@yanarchy 😳🤯

@yanarchy Central Tokyo (foreigner's wet dream): 250k JPY for 1 bedroom. Central SF (if that means San Francisco): 400k JPY.

@yanarchy I haven’t looked at condos yet, but I’m currently house hunting and the prices in Tokyo for a house seem really good. There are a lot of options below $500,000 if you don’t mind a small yard.
