What’s it like living in Discovery Bay?

Hey guys, I recently got a job in DB and my lease in a pretty far away place ends in August, so I’m looking to move somewhere closer. I was wondering what it was like to live in Discovery Bay, or what kind of rent prices there are on the lower end

I’ve been to Discovery Bay and it seems kind of boring, and the commute and ferries seem very expensive. I’m local and I like going to local markets and such, and Discovery Bay feels a little bit gentrified. But I do like the fact that it is a bit chill and quieter which I like

I’m thinking of either Olympic or Tung Chung since those are pretty connected. Most of my friends live near the Kowloon area so that’s also a factor I have to consider

I also did look at prices in Tung Chung but they seem a bit steep so let me know what you guys think

People here are sooo rude

Just a vent lol

I was born and raised here but I also lived abroad as well. Literally all my friends agree that most things in Hong Kong are great except the people

Just in the past week there’s been so many instances with shopkeepers where I ask them simple questions then they treat me like I’m stupid for asking the question

Yea I get it Hong Kong people love efficiency but holy shit how about just being nice once in a while

I’m not an ethnic minority but I’ve noticed that usually they are more patient and nicer

I need to let this out bruh I’m trying not to crash out every day
