so far so good. transport is quite easy actually - u may live in parts of kowloon and the transport isn't as convenient. altho I think PI is more convenient if u go to hk island vs. kowloon.
How is the noise from aircrafts taking off (and landing)?
Friend of mine moved out because of this, and moved to Island East - traded the noise for the humidity....
I find the noise from aircraft to be negligible. I only notice it when I'm outside, and even then only rarely.
It's bound to annoy some more than others. My father-in-law visited Ma Wan when we were considering moving here and immediately stated that he wouldn't be visiting us at home.
Indeed - those who moved out of Kowloon City before 1998 will not notice the noise...
