The Azabu, Azabu-Juban and Hiroo area is one of the most international neighbourhoods in Minato City, home to a large concentration of foreign embassies. Overseas residents and their families are a familiar sight on the streets, and English signage is common in shops and public facilities. Daily life is supported by genuine international supermarkets: National Azabu Supermarket, a three-minute walk from Hiroo Station, Meidi-ya Hiroo Store, and Nissin World Delicatessen in Azabu-Juban all carry an extensive selection of imported foods from around the world, halal-certified meat and wine, making it easy to enjoy the flavours of home. The area is also well served for education, with a number of international schools nearby, including the International School of the Sacred Heart in Hiroo, whose students come from more than 45 countries. The leafy Arisugawa-no-miya Memorial Park is ideal for weekend walks and jogging, and 2023 saw the opening of the large-scale Azabudai Hills complex. A quiet, upscale residential district with excellent access to central Tokyo, it offers a living environment where expatriate families can settle in with confidence.
