Japan's land ministry released the FY2026 Land White Paper, its annual official ledger of land use and land-price trends. For property buyers and investors, it offers the government's panorama — where prices rise and how policy steers land use. As the sandbox cannot fully fetch it, we flag the release; figures are per the original. The recent theme is urban-rural divergence: central and tourist areas keep rising while some regions face depopulation and vacant land. Read alongside the same-day vacant-home and metropolitan white papers for a fuller map. Follow-up on residential hotspots to come. (From the MLIT title and recent framework.)
