CONGESTION
In Tokyo, one of the problems in this city is the population and the amount of room they have. Tokyo has a big population on 13 million but not the largest land. That means that a lot of the people have to get jobs out of the city and that usually causes a traffic jam. The traffic jams are looked as a huge waste of time and takes a lot of time of their day to get to work which usually causes them people to work later that day because they have to catch up on work. That takes time of them being with their families so that is why traffic jams are looked as a huge waste of time. In Tokyo, they used to just have the bus park on the road to pick up the children, but they made bus standing zones for the kids to wait and a clear area for the bus to go and it doesn't cause huge congestion with the traffic. In the photo shown is just a small picture of a bit of the average traffic jam in Tokyo. looking at this picture even shows signs of how there time is wasted. All these people are trying to do is to get to work on time but unfortunately everyone else had the same idea. There are also a lot of tourists in Tokyo and some of the people caught in traffic jams are those people as well.
RUBBISH COLLECTION
In Tokyo they have three categories for there rubbish collections and the names of them are Combustible trash collection which is the collection of rubbish bags, paper, wood and even kitchen garbage. The second group is called non-combustible trash and that is where the things like glass, and metals are collected. And the last group is the well known one and that is the recycling trash. This trash collects all things like bottles, cans, newspapers and all other objects and materials that aren't use less after there purpose is done. These trash groups are not in every city or town but it is just up to your community and if everyone agrees on having the same rule.
WASTE DISPOSAL
The rate of waste disposal has got a lot better as it started off pretty average, with a lot of people not throwing items in the bins but there has been in big change in the amount of rubbish that is found on the streets. There is still small plastics that go floating around the city but the amount of that has dropped a fair bit. The city has coporated in making Tokyo a healthy city and a tide one too with no loose rubbish floating around and there is also no sign of illegal dumbing's of rubbish.
COST OF LIVING
The Tokyo housing cost has rose again in 2014 and is started to rise even more. In the metropolitan area of Tokyo, The rates for units has rose by 4.5% and is still rising. The JBY for these units is about 414,000 while in us dollars it is $4,073. The most common hosing in Tokyo is the units and that is all because of their population and the area they have. Because Tokyo isn't huge, Not everyone can have huge houses so all the average families live in a unit. The cost is expected to rise a lot more and seeing that they are hosting the 20202 Olympic games will mean housing will cost more. It is also expected that they will do a lot on construction of homes in Tokyo to also impress the other countries to come here. In the graph below shows housing price in the last few years.
