RAZZELL Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 Has anyone any recent information on Nichada Thani as a place to live? http://nichada.com/ Is it a "farang ghetto"? Is it a nightmare getting into town? RAZZ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shiroboi Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 Old post i know. I'm answering becuase nobody else has. I'm not a resident but I attend a church in Nichada Thani so I've been through the neighborhood a few times. Here's my thoughts. It's a very nice and quiet place. With all the Farang around, it doesn't feel like Thailand at all. Most people get around with golf carts. There's even golf-cart parking for Nichada residents at Central Chaing Wattana. International School of Bangkok is smack dab in the center of it so I think most residents send their kids there. There's tons of embassy employees that live there so it's a very transient community. In short, it's a pleasant Farang bubble. For me, I like living in Thailand and interacting with Thai people so I wouldn't buy or rent there but for other people who can't adjust to Thai society well, I think it would be good. If you had kids and were staying for 2-3 years, it would be ideal, if you're a long term resident in Thailand, I don't see the point. Then again, I don't speak for everyone. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shiroboi Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 Yeah, it's definitely a wierd alternate reality. A farang bubble so to speak. I really like the neighborhood and the environment but If I wanted to be away from Thai people, I wouldn't have moved here from the US. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RAZZELL Posted April 1, 2014 Author Share Posted April 1, 2014 (edited) Do they still have building land/plots for sale? RAZZ Edited April 1, 2014 by RAZZELL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shiroboi Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 I think so, I've frequently seen ads in Chaengwattana for Nichada Thani. Since many ambassadors and staff stay there, there's a ton of stuff always opening up. I'm sure there's places available in every area. There's several different sub neighborhoods and buildings depending on what income level you're at. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
