Plern, old buddy, you kind of tipped your cards when you said Bangkapi is not in Bkk.

You could be getting new neighbors every other night. By the busload.............. If you go to the facebook link, these ads are for condos all over Bangkok.

There are also lots of other vendors on the street. Is it luxurious? No. Is it slummy? I don't think so. At least that term never crossed my mind when I was there. And I wouldn't visit any slummy area if I don't need to. This is a Google street view image of that area. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Despite not being IN Bangkok many often consider Suvarnabhumi Bangkok as well. It's not. Bangkapi is roughly the same distance from BKK CBD as Nonthaburi as you can see by the map I posted. This fact and that I'd have no idea other then work why a single, foreign male would want to live *out there* While I'm certain there are some benefits, I'll bet my detractors the op decides to not opt for bangkapi. 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Callmeishmael Posted May 21, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted May 21, 2023 Before looking at a bunch of condos/rooms, you might want to figure out WHERE in Bangkok you want to live. If you work here, I would strongly suggest that you look in the area where you work or someplace that is a very short and easy commute to your office. There are thousands of apartments in Bangkok, with many in your price range. I would recommend going to your office and looking around. There will probably be several mansions (apartment buildings) withing a 5 or ten minute walk. Just walk in and ask if they have any rooms free and how much they cost. If you are a handsome man (and aren't we all!) the front desk girl might direct you to the perfect room for your price range and location. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

City center out to OnNut and out to old Bangkok palace areas of Banglamphu. Blue line Chatuchak south to Chinatown (and out to Banglamphu. That's Bangkok.

A total guess, but it's possible that they wanted to make the room cheaper, to make it easier to rent, and avoid having to pay maintenance on the AC unit.
