"A typical expat home or apartment in Tai Po, is often a high-rise apartment due to the dense population and limited space in the city. These apartments are usually modern and well-equipped with amenities such as air conditioning, high-speed internet, and modern kitchen appliances. The living space is often compact, but efficiently designed to maximize space. The apartments often feature large windows, offering stunning views of the city skyline or the surrounding mountains. Some may also have small balconies. The interior design tends to be contemporary, with a blend of Western and Asian influences. In terms of location, many expat homes are situated in close proximity to public transportation, shopping centers, and international schools. Some apartments may also come with access to shared facilities like a swimming pool, gym, or playground. Despite the compact size, many expats appreciate the convenience and vibrant lifestyle that comes with living in Tai Po. The district is known for its mix of traditional markets and modern shopping malls, as well as its easy access to nature trails and parks. In terms of cost, expat homes in Tai Po can range from moderately priced to very expensive, depending on the size, location, and amenities of the apartment. However, many expats find the cost of living to be worth the unique experience of living in this dynamic and culturally rich city," commented one expat who made the move to Tai Po, Hong Kong.
