Nerima: old textile mill site, now the station-front cultural centre and azalea park
The closest neighborhoods in the same city.
Come out the Central North Exit and walk one minute to reach the Nerima Cultural Center, next to the Heisei Tsutsuji Park, planted full of azaleas. Nerima Station faces Senkawa-dori, and there are many restaurants and shops around the station.
The underground Oedo Line was extended to Shinjuku in 1997, and from Nerima you can reach Tochomae with no transfer.
Public transit ranks 104th among 395 neighborhoods in Tokyo. The Seibu Line's Ikebukuro Line, Toshima Line, and Seibu Yurakucho Line all meet here, and trains on the Yurakucho Line run through directly onto the Tokyo Metro Fukutoshin Line.
The station plaza and pedestrian deck at the North Exit were completed in 2003, and Coconeri was added in 2014. The Cultural Center reopened after renovation in 2024, with a hall seating 1,332.
Toyotama-kita has the City Office, police station, and fire station. Overall convenience of daily life ranks 153rd.
Healthcare ranks 270th, the lowest-ranked category in this neighborhood.
Mejiro-dori and Kan-nana meet in Toyotama-kita. Seibu-Nerima Station handles an average of about 126,000 boardings and alightings a day.
The land in front of the North Exit has changed identity twice over the past hundred years. From the Taisho era, this was a textile factory, and from 1941 it was Kanegafuchi Spinning's Nerima plant, which closed in 1970.
On the former site, the Nerima Cultural Center was built first in 1983, Heisei Tsutsuji Park opened in 1994, and the station's roundabout was also built on this land. The neighborhood's town name "Nerima" was taken from the station name, not from the main village of the former Shimo-Nerima Village; the station was opened by the Musashino Railway in 1915.
In the northwest of the neighborhood, the land that was formerly the Toshimaen amusement park opened as the Tokyo Metropolitan Nerima Castle Site Park in May 2023. The park spans Mukaiyama 3-chome within the neighborhood and Kasugacho 1-chome outside the neighborhood, opening in stages, scheduled to be largely complete in fiscal 2029, with a city-planning area of 26.66 hectares.

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.
