Goods ship to Osaka/Kobe port with delivery to Kyoto (30 minutes inland). Full container and shared container options available.
Sakyo-ku (near universities) is popular with academics. Shimogyo-ku is central. Kamigyo-ku is traditional. The city is compact and very cyclable.
Living in Kyoto is quieter than visiting — away from tourist areas, it's a peaceful, traditional city with excellent quality of life. The pace is slower than Tokyo or Osaka.
Academia (Kyoto University, Doshisha), traditional crafts, tourism, technology (Nintendo is headquartered here), and teaching are the main sectors for expats.
Less expensive than Tokyo, comparable to Osaka. Housing in traditional machiya (townhouses) can be affordable. The city is compact so transport costs are low.
