Singapore’s reputation as a vibrant financial hub and tourist destination is well-known, but according to a US millionaire, it’s also an underrated haven for expats and families.
Donald Klip, a dual citizen of the United States and Hong Kong, has chosen Singapore as his home over other bustling Asian cities. With nine years of residence, he asserts, “By far, Singapore is a better place to live,” especially for expats with families1. He praises Singapore for its safety and superior rental real estate options compared to its regional counterparts1.
While Hong Kong might be the more obvious choice for singles, Singapore’s appeal to families is unmatched. The city-state offers a blend of modern amenities, excellent healthcare, top-notch education, and a clean, safe environment that is ideal for raising children1.
Singapore might be small, but it’s packed with hidden gems that go beyond the typical tourist spots. From lush green spaces to diverse cultural enclaves and a thriving food scene, there’s much to explore and enjoy for residents and visitors alike2.
The expat community in Singapore is thriving, with numerous networks and groups that help newcomers settle in and feel at home. The city’s cosmopolitan nature allows for a seamless blend of cultures, making it easy for expats to integrate and build a life here1.
Singapore’s allure as a hidden gem for expats and families is becoming more recognized, thanks to voices like Klip’s. It’s a testament to the city-state’s ability to offer a high quality of life and a supportive environment for those looking to call it home.
