  1. Makes sense to me. I think this isn't about making people who love Tokyo to leave there.. it's about giving an extra incentive for those who want to leave Tokyo instead. After all, 10000 bucks wouldn't cover a whole lot. Moving can get pretty expensive. But I also heard of other japanese governmental programs that are renting homes extremely cheap in remote areas for families. Particularly in towns that the population has declined to dangerous levels, making it hard to justify keeping up basic service. For those who don't know, Tokyo metropolitan area has the biggest population in the world. But Tokyo itself does not have the most, nor it's the most dense... still, it's pretty high up there, mostly losing in some statistics to cities in China and India. If someday I realize my dream of living there... I wouldn't want to live in Tokyo. I'd want to live somewhere between 1 to 2 hours by train... Chiba, Saitama, somewhere along those lines. xD That's ideally. But if not, I guess I also wouldn't mind too much living in other places as long as it was relatively close to a big city and I had fast Internet speeds. xD The rest, Internet shopping would do. :P I'd highly advise tourists to visit more of the inaka, don't just go to Tokyo-Kyoto-Osaka. Japan's countryside is so beautiful...
