Kōnan

Kōnan is a residential district in Minato-ku that contains a mix of apartment buildings, family homes, and local shops spread across several smaller neighborhoods. The area has the typical layout of central Tokyo, with narrow streets, vending machines on corners, and small convenience stores serving day-to-day needs.

The district was created in 1947 when Tokyo's administrative divisions were reorganized and Minato-ku took its present form. This reorganization brought together three former areas into the larger ward that now includes Kōnan.

The district maintains elementary and junior high schools that serve the educational needs of its 20,819 residents while preserving local educational traditions.

The area is well served by public transportation and can be easily navigated using the local postal code system. Visitors will find local shops and daily services convenient to reach from most locations within the district.

The population density of 9,500 people per square kilometer reflects the concentrated urban development of this central Tokyo district within the Kantō region.
