About Kimitsu

Kimitsu is a city located in Chiba Prefecture, Japan. As of September 2010, the city has an estimated population of 88,409, and a population density of 277 persons per km². The total area is 318.83 km2. The area of present-day Kimitsu was largely part of the feudal domain of Kururi during the Edo period. It was divided between Moda District and Sue District in the early Meiji period cadastral reforms. Both districts became part of Kimitsu District from April 1, 1897.

Kimitsu Town was founded within Kimitsu District on April 1, 1943, and expanded through annexation of two neighboring villages on April 1, 1944. Kimitsu was elevated to city status on September 1, 1971. Koito River entry in and out of the fishing port suffers from sediment deposited by the Koito. The economy of Kimitsu is centered around its coastal belt of heavy industries, primarily by the large-scale steelworks of Nippon Steel's Kimitsu Works. Kimitsu Works was established in 1965, covers 11,720,000 square metres.
