Frequently Asked Questions
How are the district categories defined?
Prime districts (CCR, Core Central Region) are D1-2, D6-7, D9-11 — the most central and expensive. Fringe-Central (RCR, Rest of Central Region) is D3-5, D8, D12-15, D20 — close to the city with better value. Suburban (OCR, Outside Central Region) covers D16-19, D21-28 — the most affordable with larger units.
Can I live in a prime district on a moderate budget?
Yes — consider smaller units (studios/1-bedrooms) in fringe areas of prime districts, or look at older freehold condos in D9 or D11 which may price below newer RCR launches.
Which districts are best for families with children?
D10 (Bukit Timah), D15 (East Coast), D20 (Bishan), and D21 (Upper Bukit Timah) consistently rank highest for families due to proximity to top schools, parks, and family amenities.
