About Shibuya

Shibuya is one of Tokyo's most iconic districts — famous for its scramble crossing, youth culture, and dense concentration of shops and restaurants. For digital nomads, Shibuya offers excellent transport connections (JR, Metro, Keio, Tokyu lines all converge here), dozens of work-friendly cafes, and a lively atmosphere day and night. The area around Cat Street and Omotesando is quieter and more upscale, while the station area is bustling. Cost of living is on the higher end for Tokyo, but the convenience is hard to beat.
