What Does It Mean?
Core Central Region (CCR)
Core Central Region (CCR) covers Singapore's prime districts including Orchard, Marina Bay, and Districts 9, 10, 11. CCR properties command the highest prices and are popular with investors, high-net-worth individuals, and foreigners.
Rest of Central Region (RCR)
Rest of Central Region (RCR) covers areas between the prime core and the suburbs. RCR offers a balance of price, location, and accessibility. Includes areas like Queenstown, Toa Payoh, Geylang, and Bishan.
Outside Central Region (OCR)
Outside Central Region (OCR) covers Singapore's suburban areas, generally offering lower entry prices but potentially higher rental yields. OCR districts include Bedok, Tampines, Jurong, Yishun, and other suburban towns.
