HOUSING
Singapore's Housing policy undoubtedly should be the best in the world - about 95% Singaporeans have own house. Housing in Singapore can be broadly categorised into PUBLIC HOUSING & PRIVATE HOUSING.
PUBLIC HOUSING
| Most Singaporeans live in
flats built by the Housing and Development Board (HDB). These are government-subsidised
apartments located in housing estates all over the island. HDB estates are designed to be
self-contained neighbourhoods; each served by essential amenities such as supermarkets,
food centres, clinics, schools, libraries, shopping malls, parks, and playgrounds. All
such estates are well connected by public transport. HDB apartments cannot be bought by
foreigners - only by Singaporeans & Permanent Residents. Flat sizes are divided into 6 categories - one-room, 2-room, 3-room, 4-room, 5-room and executive apartment.
