MRT Rama IX most-sought public transpo location

A popular property search site took a look at its users search terms to determine which transportation nodes were most desirable last year, as Andrew Batt writes at DDProperty.com:

MRT Rama IX was the most-searched mass transit station in Bangkok during 2014 by users of DDproperty.com.

Just over 13 percent of the hundreds of thousands of users of the “search by station” function on the website were searching for property to buy, rent and sell within a short distance of the subway station.

The second most popular station by searches was BTS Thong Lor, while the accolade of the most-searched Airport Link station went to Hua Mak – roughly half way between the urban core and Suvarnabhumi International Airport.

“It’s no real surprise that Rama 9 emerged as the most popular destination for people looking for property to buy, rent or sell in Bangkok last year,” said DDProperty.com’s Napong Panthong, head of marketing. “The area has been marketed as the new central business district for the capital, and that’s been reflected by the sheer number of property developments that have sprung up in the area in the last 12 months, and will continue during this year and for many years ahead.”
