Japan is in the middle of a population crisis. These houses are empty because there's not enough people. They're desperate for people to immigrate.
They're an isolationist society... they're not looking for people to immigrate at all, they're trying to get their own citizens to have kids. They're also quite xenophobic and racist as well.
Japan is cool as hell, but people put way to much of their knowledge from animes... being a tourist is gonna give you a completely different perspective than actively living there would.
