"Koenji has developed a reputation for vintage and recycle shops, exuding a grittier, more mature vibe compared to Shimokitazawa. The vintage clothing shops are mixed in among small neighborhood businesses and chain store brands, often requiring some effort to find. Known for its hearty, unpretentious food offerings and a thriving 'live house' music scene, Koenji offers amazing bargains in vintage shopping." - Louise George Kittaka
