History
Miyamaedaira Station opened on 1 April 1966 on the Tōkyū Den-en-toshi Line in Miyamae Ward, Kawasaki. Its 1960 provisional licence name was Tsuchihashi, drawn from a nearby place name; the present name was fixed by the Tokyu executive board in September 1965, combining "Miyamae" (from the 1889 Tachibana-gun Miyamae village) with "daira" ("flat"), taken from the original Miyazaki-Ōhira locality. The neighborhood town name Miyamaedaira was created in 1972, taking its name from the station rather than the other way round. Platform-edge doors were activated on 31 October 2015, and a Tokyu Store Food Station opened by the gates on 20 November 2020.

Notes
The neighborhood name "Miyamaedaira" was created in 1972 — six years after the station opened — taking its name from the station rather than the reverse.
