Most convenient neighborhoods in Saitama: Top 20
Among neighborhoods in Saitama Prefecture whose other scores (safety, childcare, quiet) all hold up, we ranked by the density of supermarkets, convenience stores, pharmacies, medical facilities and restaurants within walking distance (OpenStreetMap data). That gate keeps downtown cores from topping the list on facility count alone. The top 20 cluster in Tokorozawa-shi (4) and Soka-shi (3).
