Local guide

01First impressions

Heading east from downtown, once you cross Hanxi Creek, you're in Shiqi. Dongshan Road Section 1 splits this neighbourhood into two halves — in the property market, the north side is called "North Shiqi" and the south side "South Shiqi": North Shiqi is mostly low-density villas, while South Shiqi is a residential area that's been lived in for many years. The Dongshan Road and Jungong Road areas are the two commercial hubs here. Keep heading north and the houses gradually thin out — the northern half of Jungong Village is farmland, running all the way to the foot of the mountains at Dakeng.

02What works

There are plenty of school options. Jiangong Elementary School's catchment area happens to cover both Jungong Village and Shuijing Village, so the whole neighbourhood falls within the same elementary school zone; Dongshan High School, Weige High School, and Puzi Elementary School all have campuses within the neighbourhood too. For groceries, you can go to Jungong Market in Jungong Village, which is a morning market. In street-view photos, the buildings and public transport both rank 17th, putting this neighbourhood in the middle of the pack among Taichung's 32 neighbourhoods.

03Heads-up

For seeing a doctor you'll need to travel a bit further — medical resources rank 27th; sidewalks rank 25th. There's no MRT station within the neighbourhood — the closest is Jiushe Station on the other side of Hanxi Creek, about 390 metres from the edge of the neighbourhood, though you have to cross a bridge to get there. The Taiwan 74 Freeway runs north-south through the neighbourhood, so when picking a home it's worth checking how far you'd be from it.

04A bit of history

From the late Qing dynasty into the early Japanese colonial era, this area's northern half was Jungongliao Village and the southern half was Shuijingtou Village; both villages' western boundary was Hanxi Creek, facing Jiushe and Sanshizhangli on the opposite bank. In 1920, the two villages were reorganised into two "da-zi" (major administrative divisions) under Beitun Village: "Jungongliao" and "Shuijingtou". The name Hanxi ("dry creek") comes from the fact that its water level depends entirely on the weather — it often runs dry during the dry season. The street blocks on the eastern bank of Hanxi Creek came from the Shiqi land readjustment project, which was announced complete in February 2000. Dongshan High School was originally on Dongshan Road Section 1; during the 921 Earthquake in 1999, the campus happened to sit right on the fault line and was severely damaged, so it didn't move to its new campus beside Taiyuan Road until 2001. The old school site is now Dakeng Earthquake Park in the neighbouring Heping Village, outside this neighbourhood.

How are these measured?

Compared against the Taichung neighbourhoods in this guide; metrics without enough data are not ranked. Shopping counts convenience stores plus the nearer of a supermarket or a traditional market (public and private retail markets); night markets, vendor zones and shopping-street shops are not counted. Transit is rail-first with a lower weight for buses.

TidyMap rates the street environment and everyday convenience. It does not assess the home itself, safety, noise or actual living experience. About data limits
