On February 1, 2006, Sōma, along with the neighboring town of Iwaki (also from Nakatsugaru District), was merged into the expanded city of Hirosaki,[1] and thus no longer exists as an independent municipality.
At the time of its merger, Sōma had an estimated population of 3,818 and a density of 36.87 persons per km2. The total area was 103.54 km2. The village economy was dominated by agriculture.
