Why Bedok instead of Punggol?

Recently 1 of my friend ask me, why you want to buy a HDB Flat in Bedok instead of Punggol while Bedok Flat are more then 30 years old and Punggol Flat are less then 10 years old. The answer is very simple. I not buying the flat only, I buy with the environment.

Most of the people in Singapore are busy with their work, study and family everyday. People have not enough time for their family and friends. So I would choose a location that convenient for my daily activity to save more time.

When I choose a location to stay, I will consider the following:-

1)      Location
How far from my house to office (Raffles Place)?
How far from my house to public transport like MRT Station?
How far from my house to major express way like ECP or PIE?

2)      Food
Is there any food court or kopi tiam nearby?
Is there any wet market?
Is there any supermarket?

3)      School
Is there any child care?
Is there any primary school?
Is there any secondary school?

These 3 things I am doing everyday and will be doing for the next 10 years as well. If you find a place that make your life easy, you won’t keep on searching for house and moving around.

Hopefully this post can help someone to choose their best location to settle down.
