    Affordable housing near central

    I am a Singaporean female, just graduated from a US university and will be moving to HK in mid august. I will be working around central area, and am looking for housing around central. What can I expect to pay for a one bedroom apartment? Looking to minimize my rent, since I don't think I will be home much. Roommates, anyone?

    depends on your expectation and willingness to pay

    I will be in HK from early/mid sept till july 2007. Budget around 5-6K HKD/month, pretty flexible with facilities / amenities etc. Need a place around central. Working in the finance industry so likely won't be home much, open to sharing. What about your reqs?

    Kennedy Town or Sai Ying Pun is where you need to look. Check out http://www.gohome.com.hk

    Yes, kennedy town lets you get so much more for your money's worth... try the Merton, Manhattan Heights, Ivy on Belcher's buildings. good luck!
