Hometown

I'm going to talk about my home town. I live in Suita city in Osaka prefecture, which is said a comfortable city to live in. I think that's because there are good transport links and it is calm. Additionally, there is the first Asahi beer factory in this city. That's why everyone who lives in this city loves it. Of course, I love it too.

I think that's because there areis good public transport links and it is calm.

The way you wrote it is grammatically correct, but sounds a bit unnatural. I've offered what I consider to be a more natural variant.

Additionally, there is the first Asahi beer factory in this city.

Your sentence was grammatically correct, but I found it confusing as I interpreted it as: "there is" + "the first Asahi beer factory in this city" [=the first Asahi beer factory to be in Suita]
That interpretation has a different meaning. I would assume that you would be trying to say that there is something special about the first Asahi factory to be in Suita (compared possibly to other Asahi factories in the city), and I would expect you to explain why.

That's why everyone who lives in this city loves it.

I live in Suita city in Osaka prefecture, which is said to be a comfortable city to live in.

In my experience, I typically haven't seen definite articles used when referring to Japanese prefectures. Here is one example: https://www.bbc.co.uk/worklife/article/20191023-what-will-japan-do-with-all-of-its-empty-ghost-homes

> Akiya dot the landscape all over Japan, listed in ‘akiya banks’ from Tokyo prefecture to rural Okayama prefecture to mountainous Kumamoto prefecture in Kyushu, at the southern end of the Japanese archipelago.

Thank you!
I've heard Suita had clean water and was a good place to make beer.

I live in Suita city, in the Osaka prefecture, which is said to be a comfortable city to live in.

I think that's because there are good transport links and it is calm.

Additionally, there is the first Asahi beer factory in this city.
