north, northwest, northeast are also shitholes. best hdb estate is in marine parade, followed by pasir ris, simei, then tiong bahru, queenstown, tpy in that order. i’m using criteria of location, access, view, safety, neighborhood, quietness, small town feel, expat (not ceca) preference for rentals, above average rent, majority higher ses sinkies and foreigners living in the area. wherever there are sizable numbers of tiongs, cecas, jiuhukias, and low ses sinkies around, it becums a shithole. clementi had the potential of becumming a great place as it’s near the nus campus and biotech research park. but for some reasons such as lower rents, more low wage jobs, proximity to factory jobs than there are in tiong bahru, many tiongs and jiuhukias flock to clementi and jurong.
yes, pasir ris is at the top …
… and hawker food there appears to have gone atas with prices to match, must try when I am back in SG … after COVID is over … hopefully b4 CNY 2021 ...
