In 2006, the city was formed from a merging of the towns of Date, Hobara, Yanagawa, Ryozen, and Tsukidate. It is noted as origin place of dried persimmons (Isazawa in Yanagawa), as well as the founding place of the Date Clan (Takako in Hobara), and the site of Ryozen Castle, from which Kitabatake Akiie led his troops during the Nanboku-cho period.

Date City is well outside the evacuation zone that was established as a result of the 2011 earthquake that took place in Fukushima, damaging a nuclear plant. Although debate continues over the long-term effects of the incident, radiation levels are low and the tap water and local produce are safe to consume.

gollark: So your issue is just flexible working hours?
gollark: Are you suggesting that having to hunt/gather food isn't "work" for animals?
gollark: For example, a train station I'm aware of has a ticket office with 4 people at desks and basically no activity, even though they mostly just act as bad frontends for the automatic ticket system, for which there are also (not very good) automatic ticket machines.
gollark: There are some things which I think probably should be automated but aren't, though, and I think that's mostly just because some people want there to be humans around for whatever reason and pressure to "preserve jobs".
gollark: Oops, I said knowledge work twice.
