Long term effects of the earthquake and tsunami damage in Japan includes the massive cleanup and rebuilding of the country's infrastructure. Secondary effects include the radiation release from Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant and resulting widespread health and environmental effects.
Other long term effects of the earthquake include changes to the planet itself. NASA scientists reported that the displacement of land masses in Japan may have caused a shift in the axis of the Earth - by about 6.5 inches. Also, the USGS reported that the quake moved portions of northeastern Japan by as much as 2.4 m (7.9 ft) closer to North America and made portions of Japan's landmass wider than before.

loss of income, illnesses would have spread throughout the town
Ten to fifteen minutes, depending on where on the coast you are standing.
it toke a long time and they still have not recovered
The earthquake began at 5:46 and it lasted for 20 seconds.
The effects of the earthquakes on March 11, 2011 and the resulting tsunami were the initial death toll in addition to collapsed buildings, fires, disruption of water/sewer lines, displaced people/cars, damage to infrastructure (roads, highways, and bridges), etc. Another effect was the damage to the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant and resulting evacuations.

The earthquake was recorded at 2:46:23 PM local time. The tsunami, traveling at about 500 miles per hour, traveled about 80 miles in less than seven minutes.
