Motoyoshi, Miyagi
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Motoyoshi (本吉町; -chō) is a town located in Motoyoshi District, Miyagi, Japan.
As of 2003, the town has an estimated population of 11,716 and a density of 109.80 persons per km². The total area is 106.70 km². Motoyoshi is divided into three districts: Koizumi, Tsuya, and Ohya. Koizumi and Ohya are both home to spectacular beaches, while Tsuya constitutes "downtown" Motoyoshi. Fishing and farming are the main industries though a printing company is also a large local employer. Motoyoshi, like many of Japan's smaller towns, has a declining population as young people increasingly move to the large regional cities of Kesennuma and Sendai, or further South to Tokyo.
