Chinese tourists don’t understand that Japanese people would rather live in Internet cafes than rent a house. What’s so weird about this?

Because the cost of living in an Internet cafe in Japan is much less than the cost of renting a house outside. Therefore, these Japanese people who cannot afford the rent would rather live in Internet cafes than rent out their houses.

There is a group of very strange people in Japan. Most of them are just like ordinary people, commuting to and from work normally, but what is different from ordinary people is that they do not use houses as their residences, but choose to the internet cafe. They are called "internet cafe refugees" by locals. If such a thing happened in our place, most of it would become an anecdote. But in Japan, such things are commonplace. In our impression, Internet cafes are just a place where people are noisy and people play online games. How can they be used as a normal living place. This is precisely due to the very different Internet cafe cultures between the two countries.

Internet cafes in Japan are called Internet cafes. The environment is clean and tidy, and the supporting facilities are rich. Moreover, because Japanese people attach great importance to privacy, most Internet cafes have private rooms. Most Internet cafes in Japan are equipped with comic book rooms, laundry rooms, shower rooms, convenience stores, and free tea and beverage corners. In addition to the slightly small box and poor sound insulation, it is also a pretty good choice as a resting place for normal life.

About why these Internet cafe refugees choose to live in Internet cafes instead of renting outside. In fact, there is a very realistic answer, that is, they cannot afford to rent a house outside. When renting a house in Japan, the rent is extremely high, not to mention the gift money paid to the landlord, utility bills, property fees and other miscellaneous expenses. The total of these expenses can almost equal the entire monthly income of a normal office worker.

This also makes some young people who are just starting out in society, or people who do not have formal jobs, unable to afford the normal cost of renting a house. Then choose to live in an Internet cafe with low prices and no other miscellaneous expenses. In this way, you can not only sleep in the open air, but also save a little money to plan for the future.

So at this point, it is not difficult to see that these tricks are forced by life. If possible, they don't want to be so-called "Internet cafe refugees". They also want to live in their own houses, not in this cramped box. Therefore, life is not easy, so do it and cherish it.
