Population:4,200

Atsuma is a town with a population of about 4,200, located in the southern part of Hokkaido, combining rich nature with outstanding convenience. It is wonderfully located, about a 60-minute drive from Sapporo City and just 30 minutes from New Chitose Airport, and its ideal environment of being "close to the city while surrounded by nature" is a major attraction. You can enjoy exhilarating surfing along its beautiful coastline, and it is gaining significant attention as an attractive place to relocate, catering to diverse lifestyles.

The climate is mild and comfortable throughout the year, with very little snowfall compared to other parts of Hokkaido. In winter, fantastical events like the "Star Festa & Lantern Festival" and the unique "Atsuma International Snow Tug-of-War Competition" are held, adding color to life through the seasons with the community's warm-heartedness and vibrant events.

The primary industry is agriculture, utilizing the rich land, and in particular, "haskap" berries are a proud specialty of the town, boasting the largest cultivation area in Japan. A haskap fair is held in July, and delicious rice is abundantly harvested in the fall. Throughout the year, events like the Country Festival in June and the Summer Beach Festival are filled with the blessings of nature and the smiles of the people. It is a town full of possibilities, where each individual can realize the "life they desire."
