🇹🇭 Where to live in Bangkok

Bangkok's residential areas range from the old royal and temple quarters of Phra Nakhon and Pom Prap Sattru Phai to the office-and-mall corridors along the BTS and MRT lines in Pathum Wan, Sathon and Watthana. Across the river, Thonburi districts mix canals, markets and temples with a handful of rail interchanges, while the northern and eastern edges of the city hold ordinary residential streets, university areas and, further out, farmland and orchards. Which area suits a household depends largely on whether a rapid-transit station within a few minutes' walk matters more than space and quiet.

Which area suits whom

Khlong Toei Nuea

Suits someone who wants to be at the Asok junction with Terminal 21 and a BTS station three minutes' walk away.

Sam Sen Nai

Fits residents who want the Ari and Saphan Khwai area with a BTS station about five minutes on foot.

Talat Phlu

Good for those who want an old Thonburi market neighbourhood that still has a BTS station within a short walk.

Bang Phrom

For households wanting orchards and canals in Taling Chan rather than a station on the doorstep.
