Why Eight Million Homes Lie Empty in Japan
In Japan, population decline is such a serious problem that in some cases, entire neighborhoods are left abandoned. 8-million homes have been left unclaimed and unwanted across the country, and that's predicted to rise to more than 20-million by 20-33. That's one third of the country's total housing stock. As Bloomberg's Shery Ahn reports, one town is trying to fight the decline, one house at a time. (Source: Bloomberg)
