start with knowing how Thai adresses work. NP is the Province-but if you post only hat, anyone will assume you mean the capital=amphoe muang, which in fact is some 50-60 kms away from OmNoi/Yai.

These are effectively )the distinction betweent he 2 is utter vague) outer suburban areas of BKK-big city, stretched out along the old Phetkasem road. Transpo into centre BKK will relieve as per dec 12, as the BTS then gets extended into Bang Khae=avoiding the big jams and thus a quikcer transit. Many BMTA-buslines end there. BK also seems to have a fair lot of farang living there.

Anything a normal Thai needs is to be found along that road=markets, a BigC supercentre etc. Also a load of extravagant shorttime hotels-so there must be girls for hire-the most urgent wish for most TV-users anyway.

It also has its tourist centres: the Rose Farm and yet another crocodile farm for bustours.

And once you get settled and maybe-just in case-are able to appreciate some more Thai things: a little beyond is Sam Pran- a very oldstyle woodenhouse etc vilage set amongst the orhcid farms, on weekends there are 2 floating markets nearby: at Wat Don Wai and Wat Ray Khing- citybus 84 AIR(orange) ends there.
