Kushiro hat 187.457 Einwohner (2004) auf einer Fläche von 222 km².
Wegen des subpolaren Klimas steigen auch im Sommer die Temperaturen selten über 20 Grad Celsius, so dass Kushiro die kälteste Großstadt Japans ist.
Dies und ihre abgelegene Lage geben der Stadt im Rest Japans ein mystisches und exotisches Image; so ist sie Thema vieler japanischer Schlager.

In Kushiro, 125 kilometers down the coast from Nemuro, support for a return is especially strong among the city's fishing community, which would benefit financially if Japan owned the rich fishing grounds around the islands.
Furthermore, in Nemuro, Kushiro and the surrounding region, solid support for a return appears to be confined to mainly elderly former residents, their families and the fishing community.
Kumiko Fujiwara, a fortysomething housewife from Kushiro, is not especially interested in the return of the islands.
