Living on a quiet lane of townhouses and villas, a short walk from Dongshi Market for groceries
The closest neighborhoods in the same city.
Liyuan's lanes are lined mostly with townhouses and villas, and only a few complexes are lift-served apartment blocks. Real-estate listings describe it as a purely residential area, quiet and unfussy, and one of the residential clusters from Linkou's early growth.
Daily life turns around Liyuan Elementary School and Dongshi Market: the market is within walking distance for groceries, and everyday shops and services gather around it. For a walk, Linkou LOHAS Park is inside this neighborhood.
Most homes are more than twenty years old, and new developments are rare. Drivers value the location: the area sits right by the Linkou Interchange, so getting onto National Freeway No. 1 is easy, and in recent years it has drawn many commuters who work in Taipei and New Taipei.
Liyuan Elementary School's catchment is exactly two villages, Dongshi and Liyuan, so one school matches one neighborhood.
In our street photos, sidewalks rank 3rd of 100 neighborhoods in New Taipei and greenery 4th, both in the top tier.
Adding cleanliness and buildings, the overall street environment ranks 6th, also in the top tier.
Living in Liyuan, you need your own transport or the habit of taking the bus. Real-estate listings say Linkou Station (A9) on the Taoyuan Airport MRT is about 2 kilometres away, roughly a 24-minute walk. Public transit ranks 82nd of 100 neighborhoods in New Taipei and everyday shopping 52nd, both in the lower half.
Groceries come from Dongshi Market, and for bigger shops you go to Linkou New Town or the old town. Real-estate listings also mention that there are few rental homes here. Linkou sits on a plateau, flat and facing the sea with nothing to shelter it, so strong winds are common.
The swimming pool at Liyuan Elementary School has long been where Linkou children learn to swim. Later the pool began to leak and its equipment aged, limiting both safety and lessons.
The New Taipei City Education Department and the Ministry of Education's Sports Administration put NT$32 million into rebuilding it, and it reopened on 4 September 2025, also open to the community.

Maps show the shops and the sights. What a street is like, you only know by walking it. TidyMap uses AI street imagery analysis and public facility data to turn each area's street environment and everyday convenience into something you can compare. Search an address and look at the street outside first.
How to read it: yellow = poor, blue = good; grey = not enough data
TidyMap rates the street environment and everyday convenience. It does not assess the home itself, safety, noise or actual living experience. Street environment scores use AI assessments of imagery; convenience scores use public facility data.
