Kumiyama, Administrative town in Kuse district, Kyoto Prefecture, Japan.

The town extends across 13.86 square kilometers of land featuring rice fields and agricultural areas near the Kizugawa River alluvial plain.

The region belonged to Yamashiro Province during the Edo Period and emerged from the 1954 merger of Sayama and Mimaki villages.

The local government organizes regular community gatherings and festivals that connect residents through shared activities within the Kyoto metropolitan area.

The town connects to major transportation routes via Japan National Route 1, with the Keihan Electric Railway line running along its western edge.

The northern section contains the Ogura Pond Reclaimed Fields, which produce substantial amounts of rice for the surrounding region.
