Midori-ku

Midori-ku is a ward occupying the western section of Sagamihara and comprising most of the city's total land area. The district encompasses several distinct neighborhoods, each developing its own character and residential patterns.

The ward was established when Sagamihara became a government ordinance city in 2010, prompting a major administrative reorganization of the urban area. This restructuring divided the city into multiple administrative divisions to better manage its growing regions.

The educational landscape includes twelve municipal junior high schools and twenty-five elementary schools, forming a comprehensive network for local student education.

The ward's administrative center is located in the Hashimoto district, where most government services are handled. Visitors needing official assistance will find the relevant offices concentrated in this area.

The territory contains multiple distinct districts including Aihara, Kawashiri, Suwarashi, Nagura, Magino, Mikage, and Hashimoto, each maintaining its individual character.
