A quiet terminus; head south up the levee to a 10 km path for walkers and cyclists

Local guide

01First impressions

Koremasa Station is the terminus of the Seibu Tamagawa Line—one platform, one track, and that's where the rails stop. It has the quiet of a terminal station, with no large commercial facilities, but there's a shopping association in front of the station, with convenience stores and restaurants within walking distance, and a supermarket about 3 minutes away on foot. To the south is the Tama River, and the riverbank has a baseball field and a waterside park. On top of the levee runs the Kaze-no-Michi ("wind path"), a roughly 10-kilometre east-west path open only to pedestrians and cyclists.

02What works

This neighborhood ranks 9th out of Tokyo's 219 neighborhoods for greenery, in the upper range, with riverside bike paths and parks right nearby. The Kaze-no-Michi is managed by the city as a park, so you can walk, jog, or cycle along the river and watch the seasons change. The station takes its name from the Koremasa area, which in turn is named after Ida Settsu-no-kami Koremasa, who developed this area. Heading south from Fuchu-kaido on the west side of the station, it's about 1 kilometre across Koremasa Bridge to Minami-Tama Station on the JR Nambu Line. Koremasa Bridge's widening was completed in 2011; it is a cable-stayed bridge 401 metres long. Since this is the terminus and trains turn back here, it's easier to get a seat boarding here during the commute.

03Heads-up

There are no large commercial facilities in front of the station—this neighborhood ranks 215th out of Tokyo's 219 neighborhoods for everyday shopping and 217th for medical and pharmacy access, both in the lower range.

04A bit of history

The Tama River here was originally crossed by the Koremasa ferry. The Tama Railway was built to transport sand and gravel from the Tama River, and in 1909 it obtained about 20 years of gravel extraction rights in Tama Village. In June 1922, the line was extended to Koremasa Station. In 1941 Koremasa Bridge was built as a wooden bridge, and in 1957 it was replaced with a reinforced concrete one. Around 1952, the freight spur to the gravel pits was closed. Sand and gravel extraction from the Tama River was banned in 1964, and freight operations ended in 1967. Traffic over the river here was always congested, and it only improved after Koremasa Bridge was widened in 2011 and the Nambu Line was elevated in 2014.

How are these measured?

Compared against the Tokyo neighborhoods in this guide; metrics without enough data are not ranked. Shopping counts convenience stores plus the nearer of a supermarket or a traditional market (public and private retail markets); night markets, vendor zones and shopping-street shops are not counted. Transit is rail-first with a lower weight for buses.

TidyMap rates the street environment and everyday convenience. It does not assess the home itself, safety, noise or actual living experience. About data limits
