So I'm moving to Tokyo in August and I'm being given a choice of a number of different areas and I was wondering if anyone could tell me anything (or if they've lived there, what's it like) about any of the following areas:
Omiya (inc. Shiki, Omiya, Hatsuda, Ageo, Koga, Kumagaya ana Kawagoe)
Tamagawa (inc. Hachioji, Musashikasai, Shimokitazawa, Machida, Sagami Ono and Yamato)
Sagami (inc. Atsuji, Fujisawa, Tsujido, Odawara, Atami)
Joban (inc. Noda, Troide, Matsudo, Ichikawa)
I intend to look them all up myself online, but any personal views, opinions and experiences would be really useful.
