For me, i would like to be living, next to Jurong Point or the Centris, the condo in Jurong Point, there are cinemas, bus interchange, MRT, 2 NTUCs, restaurants, fast food outlets.
There are a few such places, like Clementi central, Ang Mo Kio central, Tampines central.
But i am a "West" guy so Jurong is good for me.
No Nature reserve type places for me, as there would be many "Maintenance / possible Health" problems to deal with, in humid, rainy Singapore or Asia for that matter.
But would love to live in the dryer wooded areas overseas.
