Yes and no

-Is the area busy and prone to traffic jams
Yes and no

-Does the area have lots of shops and restaurants including malls
Yes and no

-Good or bad transport connections
Yes and no, but generally yes

-Does the area 'feel' more Asian/Chinese or more British/European
Racist!

-Does the area have a mostly Chinese population or are there a large number of foreigners
Racist!

-Crime levels
Hong Kong is one of the safest places when it comes to crime, unless you are a triad member or making a movie

-Is it expensive or cheap to live in
Yes and no

Racist. Really? Calm down. Asking whether or not the area has a more Asian or western feel/population is not racist. Perhaps the question could have been worded better, but I don't think you need to throw the race card out there so quickly.

One could maaaaaybe argue that the people who go to HK Disneyland are people who have given up on life....
