Within the area, most popular area for expat is west side of the Tokyo Tower, called Azabu and Roppongi. With large scale business developments like Roppongi Hills, Toranomon Hills, and Tokyo Midtown, many international company and organization, such as Goldman
Sachs Credit Suisse place headquarter in this area, thus many expats would live nearby. Executive area is Azabu/Hiroo for spacious low rise apartment and house, but recently, the high-quality high-rise tower residences in Roppongi/Akasaka/Toranomon become popular
for their high quality service and modern facilities.
East and south east area from the Tokyo Tower, along JR Yamanote Line between Shimbashi Station and Shinagawa station, had been the business and storage area for a long time. But new development by the government revitalized the area with high-rise apartment with
view of Tokyo bay. It is now popular to Japanese wealthy for easy access to Tokyo Station, the Haneda Airport, and Shin-kansen ride.
Shirokane/Takanawa, the south side of the Minato ward, is small but quiet residential area, reflecting the history that imperial family and nobility had lived there till the end of WWII.
Azabu/Hiroo

Located in south and west from Roppongi Hills, Azabu & Hiroo is one of the most prestigious residential area in Japan. Separated by Gaien-nishi Street, the east side hill is Azabu, and west side hill is Hiroo. Azabu is little more international friendly
area than Hiroo, with several international school (such as Nishimachi International School), international glossary and embassies of European countries. Houses and apartments in both areas are built in larger scale than regular Japanese residence;
reflecting needs of executive expats family in history. For example, rooms of Homat series apartments are basically over 180 sq.m. 3bedroom and more, equipped with European country made laundry and kitchen facilities. Azabujuban & Toriizazka, where is
located by the north east edge of the Azabu area, are popular for younger expat because it is near to lively Azabujuban street and Roppongi, the hot night spot.

superior service and facilities.
