Bangkok's Condo Boom Is Over. Here's What's Next
Today we headed out for lunch at a beautiful restaurant hidden away in the western suburbs of Bangkok, and it turned into the perfect backdrop for a much bigger conversation. For years, Bangkok's growth seemed focused on condos, high-rise developments and city living. But recent reports suggest property developers are now shifting their attention to the suburbs, particularly around Bangkok's expanding rail network. As someone who has chosen suburban life in Thailand, this trend doesn't come as much of a surprise. More space, quieter streets, easier living and the possibility of owning a home continue to attract both Thai families and foreign retirees looking for a different lifestyle. Along the way we talk about housing dreams, relationships, future transport projects, and why so many people still prefer a house and garden over life in a high-rise box. Of course, we also review another interesting local restaurant and enjoy a relaxing Wednesday adventure around Bangkok. Welcome to our life in Thailand.
