Singapore is a known expat area. Anywhere on the island you will find concentrations of expats, from Changi village to Jurong East. From Marina Bay to Woodlands and all points in between.
Woodlands now has a very large expat crowd since the American School moved to the north side of the island. So does the East coast and of course the former haunt of Holland Village. Ironically, none of these places are "happening" places.
Again, what do you term an expat? one out of 4 people on this island are technically expats. Or, do you think only those with housing & car allowances are expats? You see, when you come on here with general questions, it becomes obvious you haven't done much homework at all.
This board is comprised of all sorts of people from locals with little education to Cambridge/Oxford educated locals, and expats from India, Pakistan, Philippines, US, UK, Aus, EU, SA, CH, JP and every Asean country as well and they are all expats. some with different "happening" places dependent on where they are from and their individual tastes. They congregate much the same way as well.
So, before getting jacked up at the responses you got here initially, you might want to take a step back and reconsider what it is you are looking for exactly. After all, we are damned good at what we attempt to do here, but unfortunately, we are not mind readers.
