Working around Hung Hom Station - Where to live if we want fresh air?

[Gruntfuttock]

I really don't think there's sufficient and consistent difference in air quality between different areas of the territory that this should be a significant factor in your decision (beyond not living at street level right next to a major road).

Just saw this thread and couldnt help LOL really Hard.
"Where to live if we want fresh air?".

This forum is the last place to ask this question, havent read page 1 or 2 has it been bombarded with data / statistics yet Hahaaahaaa, most will probably reply 'THERE IS NO FRESH AIR"

Closer to 20 minutes I think - but there might be a more direct route than the one I found. I doubt anyone here is unable to walk 20 minutes, but in the humid Hong Kong summer it is an unpleasant way to start your day.

average walk via short cut is indeed 20mins, via bypassing the metropolis complex ( walking the adjacent the road, then crossing over to the walkway to hung luen rd, pass the smelly drainage storage centre) , if you go via actually designated signed directions, it's closer to 27-30 goes via hung ling rd, closer to whampoa, on a rainy day, preferable as it's mostly covered until u go pass habour place, then towards ferry

yes, it's pretty sweaty, plus the ferry is very infrequent due to lack of demand, not ideal at all

If you want a shorter commute, you might consider Festival City at Tai Wai as an alternative to Kowloon Tong - the extra 13 minutes spent on the train would be offset

Actually 4 minutes.

Actually 4 minutes.

Quite right. I was using Google Maps to estimate, and didn't realize that the time listed includes walking and waiting.
