How we measure
Door to desk, not as the crow flies.
Each time is a weekday morning trip: the walk from home to its station along mapped footpaths, the wait for the first train, the ride, any change of line, and the walk from Raja Chulan to the office.
Rents are estimates for the type of home and area unless a building says they've been checked.
