Huacao Apartments and Neighborhood Info

For some, the intense urban environment of downtown Shanghai is not particularly attractive. Whether it's the traffic, the noise or the sheer number of people, they prefer more subdued surroundings. On the Puxi side of the Huangpu River, Huacao Town is the answer. There kids can ride their bicycles or walk to school, the traffic is comparatively nonexistent and in the context of Shanghai one could go so far as to describe the setting as tranquil. Like its counterpart, Jinqiao, on the Pudong side of the Huangpu, the town was created by design to serve the needs of expat families and wealthier locals both in terms of environment and services.
 
Life in Huacao is defined for many by compound living. Behind the walls of the numerous luxury villa compounds, residents have access to a variety of services which in some cases amount to a community within a community. Grocery stores, clubhouses, restaurants, health clinics and a wide variety of recreational services are contained within some of the larger compounds like the Shanghai Racquet Club. Security at these compounds is first rate and the accommodation ranges from luxury apartments or townhouses to grand villas of several hundred square meters in size. The atmosphere is definitively suburban and provides many families with a sense of continuity with their lives back home. The town itself offers a range of services including several restaurants, a pub, massage, a sprinkling of shops and a soon-to-be-opened shopping center.
 
Critics of the compound lifestyle say that it's like living in a bubble that lacks any connection to authenticity; however for some, a 'real Shanghai experience' is not why they came to China. For others who either work downtown or venture out into the city to explore, compound living is a welcome respite from the frenetic pace of Shanghai proper.
 
Huacao is relatively small in area bounded by Jinguang Lu to the east and, only a few blocks away, Jidi Lu. The northern edge is defined by Beiqing Gong Lu, while to the south it's Baole Lu. The entire area is perhaps only about one square kilometer in area, but is home to hundreds of villas and apartments.
