sbk Posted August 7, 2007 Share Posted August 7, 2007 You are interested in which locations the general population of ThaiVisa lives then, not anything particularly family oriented? I think there was a poll done a while back..... Anyway, moved to the general forum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lannarebirth Posted August 7, 2007 Share Posted August 7, 2007 Maybe you should ask in the form of a poll listing different cities/regions as choices. Anyhow, I live near Chiang Mai. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maigo6 Posted August 7, 2007 Share Posted August 7, 2007 You are interested in which locations the general population of ThaiVisa lives then, not anything particularly family oriented? I think there was a poll done a while back..... Anyway, moved to the general forum I live in Phu Kradung Loei where my main house is. I also have a place in Pattaya. I prefer Loei by far, but..............Pattaya is still a great place for a visit every now and then, I just wish Pattaya was only as busy as it was 17 years ago, and not bursting at the seams with traffic. It's too much now and I would not want to live there full time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

soundman Posted August 7, 2007 Share Posted August 7, 2007 I live in Kabinburi Sorry to be thick; but where is Kabinburi? I live in central Chiang Mai and also just outside Chiang Mai. Kabinburi is "factory park zone". Kabinburi is on the 304 Road in Prachinburi Province - 170km's from Bkk, 180km's from Pattaya, 140km's from Korat & about 110km's from Arunyaprathet. Cheers.

keestha Posted August 7, 2007 Share Posted August 7, 2007 (edited) Hello Skippy, I live in the small, but up and coming beach resort Khao Lak, Phangnga province, just north of Phuket. Interesting thread, I have thought about initiating a thread about this. Why don't you kick in a poll that roughly runs like this: Do you live in 1) Bangkok 2) Pattaya 3) Chiang Mai 4)Phuket 5)Hua Hin/Cha am 6) Koh Samui 7) a smaller touristy place such as Ao Nang (Krabi) , Koh Phangaan , Koh Lanta or Chiang Rai 8) a non touristy city such as Suphanburi or Chumporn or Si Saket 9) a village or completely out in the sticks.

Thank you - learn something new every day - I only know where Prachinburi is, as I had to look it up on the map last week. Seemed to have lots of waterfalls, so was imagining it to be a bit more scenic than factory park zone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seemed to have lots of waterfalls, so was imagining it to be a bit more scenic than factory park zone. No probs. Waterfalls only get turned on for about 3 months per year, but they are worth a day trip! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skippybangkok Posted August 8, 2007 Author Share Posted August 8, 2007 Ok... we will set a poll for getting this benchmarked in TV. I dont think I want to type the 72 provinces 1 by one, so I though categories of i.e. Most probable:- Bangkok Phuket Island Pattaya / Jomtien Hua Hin / Cha Am Chiang Mai / Chiang Rai Rayong And if people dont live close to them then Central Thailand ( think it stretches from Kanchaburi thru to Cambodian border ) North Thailand North East Thailand South ( that leggy thing going south of Hua Hin ) Any other area's ? Cant go down to the level of Nakorn Nowhere, or Non Hin Hae Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
