Moving in 1st of April.
Moving in 1st of April.
Hi guys and girls,
I'm new in the forum, just moving in to SG on the 1st of April.
Could you advice on the best location for a single professional to rent out a condo? Where everything is happening?
Thanks!

Did you do any search of the forum at all?

Unfortunately, that doesn't tell us much of anything. There is nowhere on the island where "everything" is happening. What is your definition of everything? Drinking and booze, or swimming & the beach, or the arts & museums, or what?mrmez wrote:Where everything is happening?
Thanks!

So basically you're looking for expat areas in Singapore, and nothing flashed up on a search of the site when you used that term?mrmez wrote:Thanks for the reply.
I'm looking for the "known expat" area, if that exists per definition, where you can find nice places to have a drink, meet people and get the best that SG has to offer.
Ok then
So Chinatown and Bugis showed up as expat areas? Course they did. If it appears I'm being harsh it's just because it gets a bit frustrating when people ask the same old questions and want to be spoonfed information without doing any real research or any work on their own.
Looks like more foreign talent on the way, and on April fools day no less

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.
