Mid-Levels: Mid-Levels is like getting three neighborhoods in one. It stretches from the hills above Wan Chai to Sai Ying Pun. Here’s the breakdown:
Mid-Levels Central: Known for spacious apartments and comprehensive facilities.
Mid-Levels West: Popular with singles and young couples due to its proximity to the CBD, Soho, and Lan Kwai Fong.
Mid-Levels East: Families love it here because of its green surroundings (Hong Kong Park) and access to top international schools.
The Peak: The Peak is synonymous with affluence. You’ll find everything from low-rise apartment blocks to standalone houses. Living here means beautiful hiking trails, cooler evening breezes, and proximity to an international primary school.
Pok Fu Lam: Nestled on the western corner of Hong Kong Island, Pok Fu Lam offers a mix of older colonial and modern apartments. Families appreciate the nearby international schools, parks, and the Cyberport shopping complex. Plus, it’s only a 15-minute drive to both Central and the south side beaches.
Kennedy Town: Just ten minutes west of Central via public transport, Kennedy Town has become a cool suburb. It retains its waterside charm while offering modern restaurants and local seafood sellers. Young professionals and families enjoy strolling along the promenade, swimming in the outdoor pool, and hiking the Hong Kong Trail.
Southside: Imagine waking up to uninterrupted views of the South China Sea! Southside offers just that. It’s a peaceful area with easy access to beaches and the Tai Tam Country Park. Perfect for those who crave a quieter lifestyle.
Wan Chai: This district strikes a balance between commercial and residential. It’s close to the financial center and has a lively nightlife. Plus, it’s home to the famous Star Street precinct, where you’ll find trendy cafes and boutiques.
