Mizue Station on the Toei Shinjuku Line, from La Park Mizue by the station to the detached homes of Mizue, Higashi-Mizue and Minami-Shinozaki
Mizue Station is in Mizue 2-chome. It's just a one-minute walk from the south exit to La Park Mizue, which houses Summit supermarket and Don Quijote. The platform is a single island platform, with additional pass-through tracks on both outer sides for express trains, though there's a wall between them, so you can't really see the trains passing by from the platform.
In our street view photos, this neighbourhood's streets are very clean, ranking 9th in cleanliness across Tokyo's 155 neighbourhoods. Greenery ranks 11th, making it one of the greener neighbourhoods in Tokyo. Architecture ranks 27th, with most buildings looking neat and tidy. Daily shopping ranks 78th, which is mid-range—you can get most daily necessities right in front of the station. Don Quijote is open until 1 a.m., so even if you come home late, you can still shop.
Public transport ranks 152nd, with only the Toei Shinjuku Line serving the area, and express trains don't stop at Mizue, so you can only take local trains from here. Medical and pharmacy access ranks 117th, which measures the average walking distance to the nearest clinic or pharmacy from each block—some blocks farther from the station require a longer walk. Pedestrian paths rank 111th.
The name Mizue comes from 1913, when Mizuho Village and Ichinoe Village merged, with each contributing one character to the name. Mizue Village itself existed until 1932. The current Mizue 2-chome where the station stands was established in 1994; before that it was called Nishi-Mizue and Shimokamada-cho. The station opened in September 1986 when the Shinjuku Line extended from Funabori to Shinozaki, and was temporarily called "Nishi-Mizue" during construction. In December 1997, as express service began, additional tracks were added to the station to allow express trains to pass through.
