Living in taipei

Dear,

I will soon move to Taipei with my husband and a toddler and baby. Are there any neighbourhoods that are better for families?

:/

I think the Da'an area in central Taipei is nice. There are lots of places to eat, lots of hospitals, good public transport and plenty of kindergartens and playspace areas for young kids in that vicinity. It's really central but still a nice area with many nice apartment buildings if you look between Ren'ai road and Xinyi road. However, really depends on whether you like living in the city or further out.
