D20 · Rest of Central Region
Ang Mo Kio / Bishan / Thomson
Geographically central HDB towns prized for schools.
District 20 covers Ang Mo Kio, Bishan, Upper Thomson's lower stretch and Sin Ming. Bishan sits near the island's centre with a major MRT interchange and a strong secondary-school belt; Ang Mo Kio is a large, mature HDB town.
Tends to suit
- Families chasing the Bishan and Thomson school catchments
- Buyers who want a central HDB or condo with fast MRT to town and Orchard
- Households who value Bishan-Ang Mo Kio Park and the reservoir

- Bishan resale flats and condos command a central-location premium
- The CTE runs through, so some blocks face expressway noise
- Limited landed housing within the district
