Taipei homebuyers are hot for Songshan: poll

The housing brokerage firm released a survey yesterday, showing Songshan District had a consumer passion index of 78 for August, a rise of 38.68 percent from July's 56, the highest among Taipei's 12 districts.

Songshan has become a major transportation and business hub of Taipei City. It is home to Songshan Airport, which services direct flights to Hongqiao Airport in Shanghai. Direct flights between both downtown airports have significantly cut the commute time for businesspeople traveling between the two cities.

The airport is further supported by the MRT Wenhu Line, which begins at the southern Wenshan District and passes through the Neihu District before ending in Nangang District.

Nangang, meanwhile, enjoyed the second highest growth of 27.57 percent in Yung Ching's consumer passion survey. Nangang is the venue of Nangang Software Park and the Taipei World Trade Center Nangang Exhibition Hall.

As for Taipei County, Xinzhuang City saw its August consumer passion index rise by 23.42 percent month-over-month, the highest among the metropolises of the county.

The county will be upgraded to “Xinbei City” or New Taipei City by the year-end, attracting homebuyers with its future potential.
