who will look you in the eye as they press the elevator close door button. Some people like it but other than hiking and sports, there's very little to do. It's okay as a starting point but not desirable IMO.
We have lived in south Lantau as well. It's beautiful there but traffic is getting worse and you MUST have a car as public transport can be difficult (e.g. Sundays in summer you will have to wait in a 200-300m line for the bus back to TC). You can rent one floor of a village house for 15k (700 sqft). The restaurants are pretty good and the hiking is fantastic. The trade off is that because it's a permit only area it is hard to get deliveries.
