Residential streets by the Sumida River, with Keisei and Tobu stations facing each other across the road
The closest neighborhoods in the same city.
This neighborhood is mostly residential. The south side of Senju-Akebonocho faces Arakawa City across the Sumida River. The starting point for getting around is two stations: Keisei-Sekiya Station and Tobu's Ushida Station face each other across a street, and you can transfer between them.
Although Keisei-Sekiya Station is named Sekiya, it's actually built in Senju-Akebonocho, not in Senju-Sekiyacho, which is the name in the station's name. Also in Senju-Akebonocho are Horikiri Station, one stop further on the Tobu Line, as well as the Adachi Post Office and Tokyo Future University.
Among households living here, about 63% own their homes, higher than Adachi City's overall 47%; about 44% live alone, slightly lower than the City's 47%.
Ushida Station is only 1.1 km from Kita-Senju, one stop away.
From our street photos, cleanliness ranks 50th out of 395 neighborhoods in Tokyo, the highest-ranking category in this neighborhood; greenery ranks 155th, also in the upper half.
Keisei-Sekiya Station only stops Local trains. During the day, Ushida Station has 6 trains per hour, all shuttle trains running between Asakusa and Kita-Senju; to go in other directions you need to transfer at Kita-Senju.
Daily shopping ranks 355th, the weakest category in this neighborhood; buildings rank 316th, also in the lower half. About 163 people live per hectare in this neighborhood.
Of the three stations, Horikiri Station was the earliest, opening in 1902, and later closed. In 1924, when the Tobu Line was rerouted due to the digging of the Arakawa drainage channel, Horikiri Station reopened at its current location.
The station name "Horikiri" is actually the name of a place in Katsushika City on the other side of the drainage channel; the two sides were originally connected, and the drainage channel split them apart.
Keisei-Sekiya Station opened in 1931, and the following year Tobu opened Ushida Station across the street. That same year, Senju Town was incorporated into Tokyo City and became part of Adachi City, and the original Akebonocho was renamed Senju-Akebonocho.

Maps show the shops and the sights. What a street is like, you only know by walking it. TidyMap uses AI street imagery analysis and public facility data to turn each area's street environment and everyday convenience into something you can compare. Search an address and look at the street outside first.
How to read it: yellow = poor, blue = good; grey = not enough data
TidyMap rates the street environment and everyday convenience. It does not assess the home itself, safety, noise or actual living experience. Street environment scores use AI assessments of imagery; convenience scores use public facility data.
