I think I'm gonna be moving to Hong Kong for work. I married Thai girl but work is not so plentiful to find in Thailand. I think my prof is in demand and I had some informal chats to employers in Hong Kong, I think it will be better for me to go there. Maybe I take my wife too. I've not been in Hong Kong, I want to know what is the expat areas and the popular place for expat to live, not too expensive? I don't know where I will work.

If you work in Central and want to walk to work, go to the Mid-Levels, which are served by the Mid-Levels Escalator
If you're on a more modest budget, look further along the Island Line to places like North Point
If money is no object, go to The Peak

Hey you know what, I've been living in the Mid-Levels for roughly 3 years now. I would say this is the best place to live in HK. It has everything you want--transport, restaurants, shopping malls, you name it.
A bunch of my colleagues live in Wanchai, Happy Valley and the Peak. Still, I think Mid-Levels is the best.

I agree. Try to live somewhere by the midlevels escalator.

So, what kind of rates can I expect in the Mid-Levels? I am moving to Hong Kong with my wife in November or December and we are trying to get an idea of housing costs. What can I expect for a 1 or 2 bedroom flat out there?
Thanks
