The cost of moving into a nursing home in Tokyo is so high that many people are considering living outside of Tokyo.
A recent survey found that the cost of entering a paid nursing home in Tokyo is very high.
It costs more than 10 million yen on average
The monthly cost is approximately 300,000 yen.
This is very expensive even in Japan.
For this reason, many people living in Tokyo are considering nursing homes in prefectures near Tokyo, such as Kanagawa, Chiba, and Saitama.
For example, it costs about 7.2 million yen to move in in Kanagawa prefecture, and about 4.7 million yen in Chiba prefecture.
Monthly costs are also cheaper than in Tokyo
The reasons why nursing homes in Tokyo are expensive are the high price of land, high wages for workers, and the fact that there are many high-end facilities.
As a result, it costs more money to build and operate the facility.
According to a survey, only about 55% of people said they wanted to enter a nursing home in Tokyo, and about 45% said they wanted to consider a nursing home outside of Tokyo.
In addition to cost, some people also want to live in a place with a lot of nature or a quiet life.
As the number of elderly people in Japan increases from now on, the number of nursing homes will also be needed.
However, if the cost is high like Tokyo, more people may not be able to enter even if they want to.
From now on, it is important to carefully consider costs, services, and where to live.
