i grew up in clementi area and one thing abt clementi is that
its now considered quite an old town compared to newer ones like SK
and unlike older towns like TP and AMK which gets to refurbished
themselves, Clementi like stood still - look at the Empress Cinema
and you'll know. But good thing is, with the new interchange and
stuff, things may be better.
However, Clementi remains attractive due to its proximity to NUS,
SP and NP and thats why the property prices are rising. Another
contributing factor - alot of condos are growing along Pasir
Panjang rd, that will, in a way, push up prices.
Take away all these, its not that near town, MRT still takes about
20-30 min to reach Orchard. But good thing for those going to work
in the morning, you get to have a seat on the train as the trains
leave Bt Batok depot....
