I was there a while back and I experienced the air first hand. It was Lantau.
There are some pretty nice places in the outlying territories but that pilot allowance...housing.... isn't enough to pay the rent.
Caution with that foregivable as well. Easy to see how people will get into debt and be forced to stay.
Those pilot posting on PPRUNE may be exaggerating a bit, but their point has been made. Not such a good idea to go there.
