Where to live in HK for work and tour? |
|
|
I'm considering moving to HK. Assuming money is not such an issue, where is the best place to live? I'll be working in Central. I am married with a kid on the way. I have heard Repulse Bay and Stanley are very pleasant but I'm worried it'll be a bit of a hike to work every day. I'm very attracted to the mid-levels for this reason. Summing things up, where should we definitely not live and where should we strongly consider? |

It depends on your budget. You will pay far more to live at Repulse Bay/Stanley than you will pay for other places on the Island. It also depends on how timid your wife/you are. The two areas you mentioned tend to be very expat based areas which may be good if you are not keen on the move to HK.
I don't like mid-levels as it is incredibly dense living but if you are coming from another major city you may well be used to it. Also I wouldn't want to raise a young child in such a confined area. It would be very convenient for you though workwise.
Check out other areas such as Happy Valley, Jardines' Lookout, Shui Fai Terrace, Stubbs Road for alternatives. |
