Although the station was once unmanned, it has become a manned station due to the increase of passengers associated with housing land development carried out nearby since the 1960s; currently, the JR Ticket Office "Midori-no-madoguchi" is also in service.
かつては無人駅であったが、周辺の1960年代からの宅地開発に伴う利用客数の増加に併せ有人駅化され、現在ではみどりの窓口も設置されている。
