Ama, Industrial city in Aichi Prefecture, Japan
Ama is an industrial city in Aichi Prefecture, Japan. Streets link factories, homes, and shopping areas across a modern layout.
On March 22, 2010, several towns from the former district united to create the current municipality. This merger brought together different neighborhoods and economic areas under shared governance.
The name comes from the district that held the former towns before they joined together. Residents in the neighborhoods buy fresh farm produce from surrounding fields and maintain local eating habits.
Kida Station on the Meitetsu Tsushima Line and Route 126 link the area with neighboring places. Paths through residential and industrial zones are mostly flat and wide.
The municipality runs both large industrial sites and working fields where vegetables grow for nearby markets. This double focus shows in the landscape, with factories standing directly next to farm plots.
