About Japantown Homes

Japantown has a unique mix of older single family homes and new housing developments of all types-mostly condos, townhomes and rentals together with a friendly, vibrant central business district. Bounded by Taylor Street to the north and Empire to the south, First Street to the west and l0th st. to the west, it's a fairly compact, walkable neighborhood. The area's little"downtown" runs along Jackson Street and features professional services and retail shops, including a dozen-plus restaurants-from Mexican and Korean to Chinese and Hawaiian and, of course, Japanese-and a recently opened dog boutique, The San Jose Betsuin Buddhist Church is a neighborhood fixture and perhaps most known for the Obon Festival
