What District 6 is like
District 6 is the civic heart of Singapore and its smallest residential district. Most of the land is taken up by institutions, hotels and offices, so there are only a handful of residential developments, typically inside mixed-use complexes. Homes rarely come up for sale or rent.
Who it suits
Buyers who want a rare address in the civic district and accept very limited choice.
