This Japanese Micro-Apartment is Illegal in America

Would you live in a place this small? Its not a house in Ohio, but apartments like this might be the solution to housing affordability in American cities like New York, LA, Etc… And if its a profitable vacation rental at 60 a night, the monthlys are likely 1k or less.

I don't understand how renting out literal closet space for an exorbitant amount of money is legal in New York but this kind of very humane and livable space is illegal. Not to mention, it comes with your own kitchen and bathroom. Yeah they're small but they're yours only!

[@facedefacede1164]

And washing machine is an essential.

[@yeralmuzika]

Righhhttt!!!!!! America's building policies are retarded. Something I think America is struggling to grasp is that not everyone wants a big-a$$ house, not everyone wants a family..... But everyone deserves a comfortable home.... The NY closet space room is basically a prison cell when compared to this Japanese micro-apartment.

Something like this would be AMAZING in University towns. We live in the SF Bay Area, and our daughter attends UCB. Student housing in Berkeley is either full, or waaaay too expensive for students to afford. Apartments like these would mean more students can afford to live in city without having to either couch surf, hide and try to sleep in unoccupied classrooms (yes that does happen quite frequently) , live in their cars, or have hellish commutes. It's that bad 😐.

I think you can make more space if you got one of those bunk beds with a desk underneath it. That way, you have an actual dining table/workspace area. The abundance of natural light is a huge plus. Place sure is tiny though.

[@ae2948]

We used to raise these types of beds with cinderblocks or fames so we could store stuff underneath. This "apartment" has no storage.

[@Scott-i9v2s]

@@ae2948 Notice the under-bed storage. The answer to "Where do you put your stuff?" is simple: people who rent such apartments either cut down on "stuff" or have NO such "stuff" to start with. It is called "living within one's means", a mindset that differs from "I want MORE!".

[@lindawarden-burglund9603]

I like that this little apartment has everything you need without having to have a roommate! Kitchen, bathroom, laundry, and bedroom all in one! I think I would use that little table as a tray table and sit on the bed to eat or work. I think the place needs a dresser. Then, I would put the microwave on top of that so I could use the stove, plus have a place to put my clothes. That would work for me, but I'm not sure how long I would be able to live anywhere that small! It would be a step up from some of the tiny "apartments" in NYC that are no bigger than a closet with a hot plate and no bathroom PLUS cost $1200/month! Thanks Cash! Can't wait for the next one!

[@deaniej2766]

Just store the TV and put the microwave where it is now. Most young people just stream on their computers now anyway.

[@bloodmoon2345]

Great video. There is actually extra storage space under the bed, those are drawers I believe because I have the same type of bed. So you actually could do the bar counter + seat in that size of an apartment

[@pepsilove6306]

n thats if you want to live in a big big japanese city. you head out to ishinomaki or the countryside, those little apartments can be had for 150 to 300 depending on how 'modern' you want it. the building I lived in, the apartments had their own showers, but there was no toilet, each floor had 4 apartments and 2 hallway bathrooms, so the toilets where shared among the 4 apartments. but for the price, I didnt mind, especially because we all kept the shared hall bathrooms super clean.

[@levenaris]

To answer a few questions about the place/ explain why things are laid out like that. The shower space is a wet room-style shower, which is why the floor was wet! You sit there and shower/clean yourself before you go into the bath. Because you clean yourself before your bath, that water is clean and is reused for the washing machine. That's what the tap outside on the balcony was draining from. I love little places like these, it's so efficient. The phone above the bed is likely to be either the intercom or building security as there is only one button. If you happened to see any kanji that looks like this "非常" then it's for calling security

[@Sherry1962]

It reminds me of a cruise ship cabin on a really old cruise ship. Love the mailbox.

[@fannycraddock99]

What a cool little place. Perfect for a few nights stay. For longer term changing out the bed for a sofa bed would make sense. Lack of cupboard space is still going to be an issue but I'm sure that with careful planning something could be worked out. Thanks Cash for another great adventure.

[@fianorian]

With the addition of a wardrobe and maybe a comfy chair, that is a pretty functional space. It is at least self contained and I noticed you could hang clothes on the balcony (if you're not on a time constraint). It's smaller than a bedsit I once lived in, with the advantage of a private toilet and bathroom.

[@3Axel1996]

Instead of the twin bed, you get a futon which would be your comfy chair/sofa during the day and bed at night.

[@AdrienneMint]

Good job on this video, Cash. I don’t hate the apartment. I can see you can make it work and I think it would be ok for someone’s first apartment or for a student. And yes, it’s better than an apartment where you have to have a roommate.

[@ThisWontEndWell]

Having done a lot of travelling for work I'd prefer to be in that place for a week or two than hotel life where you can't really get into a normal routine and relax.

[@calendarpage]

I complain a lot about the NYC apartments, but this one isn't bad at all. If you go in understanding what it is and what you're working with, it wouldn't be bad for a short stay, a student, or a newcomer figuring out the city before getting a permanent place. I'm not sure about the washer on the balcony - isn't weather a problem for the electronics in it? If not, I guess it works. You could put a table and chair, with a small wardrobe. It might be tight, but you're not living with serial killer roommates.

I lived in Japan for many years. That little door in the bathroom was where you store your toothbrush and anything else you don't want just lying around. The intercom phones were basically to answer the doorbell without having to open the door. It's a security thing. Don't want the NHK guy to find you.

When I went to college I had a pretty small sized apartment. Main area was about 8ft by 20ft. Bathroom was very small (3ft by 9ft). Lack of elbow room in the shower was really, REALLY annoying. No washer, but I had alternatives for washing. My dresser didn't use much space at all, so I had more than enough room to have a full sized desk. Other than the bathroom, it worked out really well for me (Only $500 a month, with internet). Thankfully I was in a rural town so it wasn't crowded. I'm not a fan of big cities.

Pasadena, California is actually doing something like this for "lower" income individuals.

[@GGG_gaming]

Rents at Pasadena Studios will range from $565/month to $1191/month so unless you work only 20-30 hours a week thats bad qualifications, more then 30 a week is almost 1200, if you go to places like victorville there are 3 bedroom apartments for 1300-1500 so honestly they are almost charging double the cost for the amount of space

truth be told, with some smart construction of kitchen and other storage in room, this could actually be causy place to live, for a single person. Larger bed, and your partner can visit. What you actually need is only comfortable bed, workdesk with some storage and place for PC, kitchen that is big enough so you can have everything within storage - and shallow storage unit in hallway (size of shoes, for shoues, jackets etc - and this is extremely comfy and livable - people don;t really undrestand, we actually don;t need too much space to live in, what we need is neccesities, comfor of bed and chairs, light and access to fresh air - all of what this apartment has. 120 sqr feet is little more then 11 m2 - my studio for work is 14 m2, and has more then enough space for everything, with huge doors for light and air.

Except that there are a tonne of them in America. You have shown us some already. This one is a lot cleaner and safer than most illegal suites in NYC. Very cool!

Cash, I can tell you're very excited about this setup. I can see you buying property and becoming an apartment lord in Osaka.
