Reading the Chiyoda Ward market

The premium is steepest for family-sized flats. Against the same layout across the 23 wards, rent per m² is 23% higher for a 1LDK, but 46% higher for a 2LDK and 122% higher for a 3LDK, where the median rent is 750,000 yen. The median 1LDK, at 42 m², is among the largest in Tokyo. Prices are high almost everywhere in the ward: 13 of the 39 towns with enough listings sit in the top band of ¥6k or more per m², many of them in Kanda and Kojimachi, and even the cheapest, Kanda-Izumicho, is at ¥4k to ¥4.5k.

Minato is the only neighbour that costs more (4% per m²). Chuo is 6% cheaper, Shinjuku 10%, Bunkyo 14% and Taito 16%.

The median condo asking price is ¥140M to ¥160M, far above ¥80M to ¥90M across the 23 wards. Units take a median 21 days to leave the market, the longest of any ward. Only 13.4% of delisted units had been cut in price, while 11.6% of current listings have been on the market since observation began. Sellers wait rather than cut, the same pattern as in Minato.

Parks and gardens cover about 10.8% of the ward, the highest share in the 23 wards, largely thanks to the grounds around the Imperial Palace. Residents are the youngest of any ward by median age (41.9), and children make up 13.5% of the population.
