The southernmost station in Tokyo's 23 wards, where one end of the platform runs up onto the Tamagawa River embankment
The closest neighborhoods in the same city.
Rokugodote Station is the southernmost station in Ota City and in Tokyo's 23 wards; one more stop south and you're already in Kawasaki City. At the Kawasaki end, part of the platform runs up onto the Tamagawa River embankment, with the railway bridge across the river right in front of you.
Outside the embankment, the riverbank is Rokugobashi Green Space, a riverside green area, which falls outside the neighborhood. The neighborhood includes Naka-Rokugo 4-chome, Nishi-Rokugo 3- and 4-chome, Higashi-Rokugo 3-chome, and Minami-Rokugo 3-chome; in 2020 about 23,000 people lived there, roughly 233 per hectare.
Among the houses stands Rokugo Shrine, said to have been founded in 1057. On the weekend of the annual festival each June, a mikoshi carrying the shrine's sacred object is paraded through the areas of Rokugo's 14 neighborhood associations.
From our street photos, cleanliness ranks 160th out of 395 neighborhoods in Tokyo, in the middle range. Greenery ranks 214th, also in the middle range.
The station itself is only served by Local trains, with about 16,000 people passing through daily in fiscal 2024. At Keikyu Kawasaki, 1.2 km to the south, Kaitoku Limited Express, Tokkyu Limited Express, and Express trains all stop, and JR Kawasaki Station is another 3 to 4 minutes' walk from there.
Daily shopping ranks 283rd out of 395 neighborhoods in Tokyo, toward the bottom. One stop north at Zoshiki, there are shopping streets on both the east and west sides of the station, and a large supermarket at the east exit. Medical care and pharmacies rank 363rd, also toward the bottom.
TidyMap ran its own estimate, taking points roughly every 40 meters within the neighborhood on the Geospatial Information Authority of Japan's flood inundation hazard map: about 97% of the points fall within the projected flood zone, and about two-thirds are in the 3-to-5-meter range. In Nishi-Rokugo 4-chome, about 83% of the points are in the 3-to-5-meter range.

When this station opened in 1906, it was called Rokugo-zutsumi; both "zutsumi" and "dote" mean embankment, and the name was changed to its current one before the war.
The Tamagawa River, beyond the embankment, was once a river travelers on the Tokaido had to cross. In 1600 a wooden bridge was built across the Rokugogawa near the river mouth, but it was washed away by a flood in 1688, after which ferries took over. The ferry crossing was between Kawasaki-shuku and Yahatazuka Village on the opposite bank, slightly downstream of the present-day Rokugobashi.
New bridges were built in succession in 1874 and 1884, and the ferry service was suspended accordingly, being fully abolished in 1925. It's said that the mikoshi used at the bridge's opening in 1600 was Rokugo Shrine's own.

Hospitals with inpatient beds (2020 data), public elementary and junior high schools whose catchment covers this area, high schools and universities within 1 km, stations, parks of 1 ha or more, and large shopping malls and department stores. Many Tokyo junior high students attend private schools, so junior high catchments are only a guide.
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.
