Housing Overview
--------------------------
• Expatriate Housing Areas
◦
West Suburbs This
is a wide area in west of Hongqiao, a real suburbs but
usually still within 30-50 minutes driving distance to the city.
Because
the land supply is limited in Hongqiao, the development goes to the west.
Many
international schools are situated in or move to West Suburbs, and many
large villa compounds are developed in this area recently several years.
It has two expatriate housing locations as below:
~
Huachao Town area (North Minhang District)
Lots of international schools in walking distance, one large compound of
apartments and several large villa compounds provide efficient housings
for expatriate families who like countryside style life plus children walking
to school.
~
Huqingping Ave area (Qingpu District)
The new European Campus - the French and German School moved to this
area, and many expatriate families with children to this school follow up.
This area actually is an extending of Hongqiao along the Huqingping Ave,
there are plenty of villa compounds for expatriate families who plan to
move out from Hongqiao, on same rental you can have double sized house
& garden here.
For the reason of simplification,
when we refer to West Suburbs on expatriate housing area, it normally
means the whole area out of Hongqiao in Puxi side, including
south-west and
far south-west areas, where
Sheshan Town and
Tianmashan Town, Xinzhuang and
Xinqiao Town
located, the area may cover Qingpu,
Minhang and Songjiang Districts.
