Characteristics of the Yurakucho Line

Yurakucho Line is convenient for commuting to work or school

The Yurakucho Line is a subway line that connects Shinkiba to Wako City.

It includes stations such as Ikebukuro and Iidabashi, which are convenient for transferring, so it has excellent access to other areas.

In addition, during rush hours for commuting to work or school, the train will arrive in about 2 minutes at the earliest, so you won't have to worry about the stress of waiting.

Moving to the Yurakucho Line will make your daily commute to work and school more convenient.

There are many livable areas on the Yurakucho Line.

Not only is the Yurakucho Line convenient for commuting to work or school, but there are also many areas along the line that are comfortable to live in.

For example, areas such as Kotakemukohara and Kanamemachi, which will be mentioned later, are safe despite being close to the city center, and are extremely convenient for living.

The closer you are to Saitama, the cheaper the rent will be, so there are many options for properties.

Those looking for a comfortable area to live in should consider properties on the Yurakucho Line.

The Yurakucho Line is scheduled to introduce a new model, the 17000 series, in 2020.

The new vehicles have wider seats and improved air conditioning capabilities, further improving ride comfort.

I'm already looking forward to the new Yurakucho Line.
