What standards guide your search for a new place to live?
Nestled beneath the majestic ridgeline of the Northern Alps, Miasa is a satoyama community where quiet nature and daily human life blend in harmony. Many who resonated with this richness have already chosen to relocate here—today, newcomers make up more than 40% of the local population.
Some come seeking a slower, nature-aligned way of living and working. Others arrive with a wish to rethink child-rearing and find a school deeply connected to its community. For many, Miasa offers a place where one's own rhythm of life can take root and grow.
In particular, Miasa Municipal Integrated School—a combined elementary and junior high institution operating as a community school—has become an attractive option for families seeking an education-focused relocation.
“Will this lifestyle truly fit who I am?”
“I want to picture the daily rhythm more clearly.”
“What about housing, work, or the feel of the local community?”
Whatever your questions may be—big or small—please feel free to contact us. We welcome every inquiry from those exploring a new chapter of life in Miasa.
Our Philosophy
Miasa does not promote relocation merely to increase population numbers.
Instead, we strive to build a sustainable, well-balanced community together with those who choose to live here.
For that reason, Miasa may not be the ideal choice for individuals who:
- Prefer no interaction with neighbors or local associations
- Do not wish to participate in shared community activities or events
Despite its small population, Miasa is a place where residents can shape the future with their own hands.
Rather than living anonymously in a crowded city, many find meaning in creating each aspect of daily life together with the community—a way of living filled with pride, purpose, and connection.
To join the local efforts, exchange greetings, and support one another—this is not merely “living” but taking an active role in the story of the region. We warmly welcome those who share this spirit.
