日本的空置房屋数量达到 900 万套，创下历史新高，对于面临人口减少问题的国家来说，这是一个严重的问题。 9 million vacant homes plague Japan, a record high and a significant problem as the nation faces a declining population. 这些废弃的住宅被称为“空屋”，在农村地区更为常见，但在东京和京都等大城市也越来越多地出现。 Known as "akiya," these derelict residential homes are more commonly found in rural areas but are increasingly seen in major cities such as Tokyo and Kyoto. 由于政府正在努力应对人口老龄化和出生率下降的问题，问题不是住房过剩，而是人口短缺。 The issue is not a surplus of housing but a lack of people, as the government grapples with an aging population and a decrease in birth rates.
