According to sources, Japan is planning to pay families one million yen per child to relocate out of Tokyo this year in order to combat the rapid depopulation in the country's rural parts. This move is being made in an effort to combat the rapid depopulation in the country's rural areas. A family unit consisting of a mother, father, and two children would be eligible for financial assistance in the amount of three million yen if they moved out of the Tokyo metropolitan region.
Under this program, which was initiated in 2019, the government has the goal of moving 10,000 people from the metropolitan area of Tokyo to rural areas by the year 2027. In 2018, the government assisted 1,184 households, and this number is expected to increase to 290 in 2020 and 71 in 2019.
Japan is going to pay families 1 million Yen per child to move out of Tokyo this year to combat the rapid depopulation in the country's rural areas, according to reports.According to a story in Time magazine, the help for children is in addition to a one-time payment of one million yen that families can currently earn for relocating. Households that have resided in the central Tokyo metropolitan region for a period of at least five years are qualified to submit an application for the support grants. The cost of the funds is being divided between the national government and the several local municipalities. If the families are interested in beginning a business in the community, then they will receive further support in this endeavor.
Nevertheless, getting the one million yen that will allow you to relocate to an ideal rural community is not as simple as it may sound. In order to qualify for the assistance, families must have lived in their newly purchased homes for at least five years and have at least one member who is now employed or who has plans to start a new business. Those who leave before to the completion of the five-year lease and are required to return the cash.Constant emphasis is being placed on the many positive aspects of Japan's cities, towns, and villages in an effort to attract visitors. In the instance of Otari village, one of them is the availability of "eligible males," and another is the ease with which one can obtain child care.In recent years, Japan's rural areas have experienced substantial population loss due to an increase in the number of young people leaving for chances in the cities. According to The Guardian, the officials hope that the attractive amount will inspire families to revitalize these districts and reduce strain on space and public services in larger Tokyo. In addition, the officials expect that the pressure will be eased in greater Tokyo.
