I will be moving to Tai Po in 3 weeks and am looking for some advice about the best places to live. I would like to live in the center of the city, near shopping, nightlife, and public transportation.
Does anyone know of any apartment buildings that would fit this description? Any help you can give would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Tai Pall Mall has a Jusco and lot of other stores and this would be the nearest description to the city center living. There are plenty of property agents that will advertise places for rent around the Tai Po Mall area. Walk over a couple of bridges (over the river) and then down to the main road where you'll find a good few pubs and that'll be your night life in this surrounding area.
Good luck

I don't believe these Tai Po bashers here know much (up to date info) of the area at all. It is becoming vibrant, good luck on your move there.

I have lived in Tai Po for nearly 9 years and I much prefer it to the "Island",my husband lived on the "Island' for 2 years 30 years ago and has lived out this way since.
It still amazes me looking at all the mountains driving back home,Hong Lok Yuen is nice but overated(we belong to the c,club/gym there,)we live in the Lam Tsuen area with a huge garden(lots of maintenance)
There are lots of little parks for kids to play in,shopping mall,I prefer to shop local (get discount when owners see you regular)plenty of parking ,lots of sushi bars have sprung up.Tai Mei Tuk/Waterfront Park /Kadoorie Farm...
Plenty of bars with expats around to make friends with After5,Soho..theres the Hash they meet Sunday and Wednesday great social life with them(always a party)transport green /red mini buses 5/10 mins to KCR $5.5 taxi about $25 plenty of schools nearby....Brill place to live WE LOVE TAI PO.

Hi - Can I get an update on this question? I am not the original poster. My concerns are travel time to Quarry Bay (I could buy a car) and local International Schools.
How about Beverly Hills? Rent's seem very reasonable for a house.
Thanks!

My family would like to move to Hong Lok Yuen as we can only get a school place there for my son. I know it is a good place to live. My only problem is that I will be working in Pokfulam! Does anybody know how long it would take to get there in the morning. I could leave by 7 am. Would a taxi be totally crazy? Any ideas would be great.

We're looking for advice.
Interested in moving to TAI PO due to space.
We're currently in midlevels west. Very crowded and pricey.
What are the options for pre nursery / kindergarten / playgroups?
Currently we can walk to woodlands Montessori so that's greeat.
I'm worried about schooling in Tai Po.
Seems like Beverley hills is quite nice and affordable.
Hong Lok yuen seems more expensive but the school is right there.
Hoping to receive some advice here. Thanks.
