   Extractions: As you can tell from the statistics above, Japan is highly populated and very small; less than 20% of the land in Japan is habitable, so you can get an idea of how space is at a premium. One-story dwellings are practically non-existent. Most of the population is near coastline and mountains. It seems like almost every bit of flat land is taken up by something, and rice paddies seem to fill the countryside. Like most other countries, the price of gasoline is quite high (up to $4 a gallon), and roads are not as wide as in the U.S.; this combined with high population density, prohibitive auto taxes and sparse parking makes car travel very expensive. As a result, most traveling is done by train, and Japan's train system is up to the task. Three main trunk lines carry the very fast "shinkansen" (bullet trains) make up the backbone of the system, but most traveling is done on the countless other train lines which crisscross the countryside and spread like nets across the cities. Japan is divided into 47 prefectures (the largest being the entire island of Hokkaido), and each prefecture is made up of villages, towns, cities and sometimes areas analogous to counties. Larger cities will be divided into boroughs, or "wards." Each village, town, city or ward is divided into "machi," the size of large neighborhoods; each machi is divided into "chome," which usually consist of several dozen blocks. Each "chome" has numbered blocks, and each block has numbered houses. Since only important avenues have names, a house may not be identified by which street it is on, rather by which block, chome, and machi it is in.
