Living in Roppongi for Women

Roppongi's two subway lines and dense concentration of shopping, dining, pharmacies and services can make daily routines particularly efficient for working residents and people living alone. Large complexes such as Tokyo Midtown and Roppongi Hills also allow many errands to be completed indoors. After dark, however, pedestrian activity changes around Roppongi Crossing and certain nightlife streets as restaurant and entertainment visitors increase. For any resident, including women living alone, a property should not be evaluated solely by an advertised number of minutes from Roppongi Station. The specific exit, actual walking route, late-night pedestrian conditions, street lighting, building entry security and management should all be checked. Minato City also provides equality and human-rights consultation services. It is more accurate to inspect each prospective location during both daytime and nighttime than to characterize the entire district as uniformly safe or unsafe.
