"Umejima" is a name pieced together during the 1889 municipal mergers: Umeda Village, Shimane Village, and others merged to form Umejima Village, taking one character each from Umeda and Shimane. When Tobu opened a station here in 1924, it used the name Umejima.
When Adachi City was established in 1932, the former Umejima town was split back into the old village names of Umeda town, Shimane town, and others, and the place name Umejima disappeared for a time. Umejima town was only reestablished in 1945, and it wasn't until the 1966 residential address system was implemented that the current Umejima 1-chome through 3-chome came into being.
The station kept the name Umejima, though its address is in what is now Umeda 7-chome.

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.
