Local guide

01First impressions

What everyone calls "Unit 2" is also known as "Comprehensive Development Area Unit 2" — its official land readjustment name is the Liming Self-Managed Urban Land Readjustment Zone, straddling Xitun and Nantun Districts. Huanzhong Road Sections 3 and 4 cut right through the middle, and Xinfu Road is in there too, with new high-rises and townhouses on either side, mixed in with vacant lots and construction sites. Buildings here have to set back 6 metres from the front and walls can't be taller than 2 metres, so the streets look especially wide.

02What works

In street-view photo rankings, this neighbourhood comes 3rd out of Taichung's 32 neighbourhoods for buildings, streetscape and greenery, and 4th for cleanliness. Driving is really convenient — Freeway 74 is right next door, and it's about 10 minutes to the Nantun Interchange on National Freeway 1. The department stores and restaurants of the 7th Redevelopment Zone (Qiqi) are just to the east, a short drive away for weekend dining and shopping.

03Heads-up

Daily convenience is the biggest downside: this neighbourhood ranks 31st for daily convenience, everyday shopping and public transport, and 30th for medical care. There's no MRT station within the neighbourhood — the nearest one, Shui'an Temple Station on the Green Line, is still about 1.2 km from the boundary. Property listings often call this the "Huiwen school district", but Huiwen Elementary School and Huiwen High School are both on the Qiqi side, roughly 560 to 900 metres from the neighbourhood boundary; Liming Elementary School is also outside the neighbourhood. New buildings are being handed over one after another, but Xinsheng and Longtan Villages currently have only 6,340 registered residents between them.

04A bit of history

This readjustment zone was approved by the city government in 2008. It covers about 186 hectares, and media reports often describe it as Taiwan's largest self-managed urban land readjustment zone. In a 2013 interview, the developer said a 10-metre road was widened to 25 metres to create a green corridor, planned as a roughly 2-km-long cycling greenway.

05What's coming

The second phase of the westward extension of Shizheng Road, running from Anhe Road to Huanzhong Road Section 3, broke ground in February 2024, with a completion date of end of August 2027 on the city government's construction progress system. Its Huanzhong Road end sits right at the neighbourhood's north corner, and the city government says that once it opens, it will link up the airport, the science park and downtown.

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
