    Kwun Tong on $9000HKD per month

    I will be working in Kwun Tong in a matter of weeks.

    I need to find something close to $9000HKD per month, preferably furnished or a serviced apartment.

    Any ideas?

    I am currently paying $9000HKD per month near Times Square and the place is small and nice but the commute to Kwun Tong will not be realistic for me.

    Thank you.

    21 minutes on the MTR?

    Some people just don't realise what commuting means in almost every other major city in the world!

    Nevertheless, Kowloon East is cheaper than Hong Kong Island, so you shouldn't have too much trouble.

    You won't get a serviced apartment for 9k.

    crazy to live in CWB when u could live in CWB and commute the same time

    ie clear water bay road has some villages which are about 20 min on minbus to Kwun Tong -

    the op could get a 700 sq foot 1st floor apartment for 9K a month i think!

    and get some fresh air too.

    in Kwun Tong - some where off Hip Wo street would be handy... or Tsui Ping Street..

    Laguna City is nicer ( sea views ) of course Lam Tin is also popular...

    Yes, there is a mini bus which goes direct to Kwun Tong from CWB.

    or get the minibus to choi hung - from there take the MTR..

    actually loads of places to look - Kowloon Bay and Ngau Tau Kok are like 5 and 2 min on MTR...

    u can walk in 15 min to Kwun Tong from Lam Tin - and Ngau Tau Kok is even closer...

    check out Go Home and search for your price range..

    Size counts when it is real small.
