Yesterday we signed our lease and forked over a fortune in fees and rent and illegal key money. Our new home city within the massive Tokyo prefecture is Kokubunji, population 122,000. According to a map on that Wikipedia page, we're quite centrally placed in the prefecture. Or, "Tokyo's belly button" as Mari put it.
