What are residential townships?
A residential township usually combines several housing formats — apartments, villas, row houses or plots — around shared roads, parks, a clubhouse and sometimes a school or clinic. The township is planned as a whole, so infrastructure such as water, drainage and power is designed for the full community.
They suit families who want a self-contained neighbourhood with security and amenities, but who will still commute outside for work.
What to check
Master plan and phasing: which phases, amenities and roads are already built
Mix of housing types and densities in your phase
Water source, sewage treatment and power backup
Schools, healthcare and shopping inside or near the township
Maintenance charges and who runs the township after handover
