As the above-mentioned housing estates were designed many years ago, it takes time to retrieve the projected number of residents at the time of design. We are unable to provide such data for the time being. Furthermore, the actual population will change over time as a result of changes in residents’ family status. The information of authorised population is as at 30 September 2018. Note 2: There are three lifts in Hoi Shui House. Note 3: Ming Yuet House is an annex block which has only one lift.
