Any Nagoya savvy folks who could comment on what towns to look at for real estate (rental or purchase) within a 30-45 minute train or bus ride of Nagoya Tsurumai Station? Looking to be in countryside, or smaller town rather than within the big city as am desirous of green, fresh air and water, walking, a small garden, but need to work in Tsurumai.
