Everything else is right but you can say, "I think some people prefer to use bullet train to travel from my city/ town to Osaka"

@arpi_28 Thanks a lot for the feedback. Can I ask some quick questions?
As for Western part of Japan, would "the Western part of Japan" be better? I mean, is "the" (definite article) necessary or not?
As for bullet train, would it be better to say "bullet trains"(plural)?
Can I have your thoughts?

I think you’d say “THE western part of Japan”. Your inclination to include the article is correct! You might also change the sentence to “I live in western Japan…” and omit the article.
You’re also right about plural “bullet trains”. You might also say “people choose the bullet train”.
This sounds more natural to my ear, though:
“I think some people take bullet trains to get to Osaka from here.”
OR
“Some people take the bullet train to Osaka.”
OR
“People take bullet trains from here to Osaka”
I hope this is helpful and not confusing!
