Our company is moving several Japanese families to the Maryland area, maybe an hour or so from Alexandria. Are there any other Japanese families or groups in the area they can connect with? Thank you for any information you can provide.

Hello Karoe,

I do not have specific answers for you but why the mention of Alexandria? Will you be working in Alexandra and living in Maryland? Or are you just using that as a reference?

I'd suggest contacting the Japanese Embassy to ask for help. You could also try the US-Japan Friendship Commission (which may, by the way, be the very smallest Federal agency).

From the OP's post in the Hampton Roads forum, they're being placed in Southern Maryland near the Pax River NAS.

In that case, wouldn't Southern MD make more sense as a place to live?

There is no cluster of Japanese expats or even Japanese Americans that I know of in the DC area. They tend to live among everyone else.
