Safety and Disaster Preparedness Around Daiba Station
Map & surroundings
Daiba falls within the jurisdiction of Tokyo Wangan Police Station. The Odaiba-kaihinkoen Station police box is located at Daiba 1-5-2. Because the area receives substantial tourism and leisure traffic, crowd patterns differ from those in a purely residential neighborhood. Current official crime data are not continuously published at the narrow Daiba Station walking-area level, so broad claims that the neighborhood is simply 'safe' or 'unsafe' should be avoided. Disaster planning is particularly important because of the waterfront and reclaimed-land setting. Minato City publishes maps for tsunami, liquefaction, ground shaking, flooding and storm surge; its tsunami modeling uses a 10-meter grid for Daiba. Daiba 1- and 2-chome are also included in a designated district where remaining locally may be appropriate under the city's earthquake evacuation framework. For individual properties, residents and businesses should check seismic standards, floor level, evacuation routes, emergency power and the latest city hazard maps rather than relying on a neighborhood-wide assessment.
