The Wharves

987 taps a working day at this corner’s stops

The published record for this corner: measured numbers with their receipts, named absences where the record is empty. No scores, no forecasts, nothing invented.

Rent: rent is not published here yet. That is a gap on our side, not a zero
District 27’s stamped Level 1 (street level) band (S$12.21–25.29 psf): withheld here. The plan zones no parcel a shopfront can occupy, so the district’s shop rent describes a market this corner is not in withheld
That range pools 2 floor-area cells, and they do not overlap the same way: 30 sqm and below S$14.42–25.29 psf from 3 contracts; over 30 to 100 sqm S$12.21–18.59 psf from 3 contracts. Read the cell your own floor area falls in, not the pooled range above it
The plan zones 0% of this corner for uses that can hold a shopfront; its largest single use is reserve site at 45%, a plurality, not a majority. This count does not read reserve site as a class able to hold a shopfront, so the 0% and the 45% describe one plan, not a contradiction tight
987 taps in and out on a working day · 425 on a weekend or public holiday (buses only, no rail in this number)
No station within 400m. Nearest is SEMBAWANG (NS11), 1,129m to Exit C · 85,231 taps a working day at that station, measured at the station and not at this corner
residents: withheld at source. The publisher printed a dash here, and a dash is not a zero · 36,400 work here daytime (planning area)
No HDB flats here. This corner is outside HDB's register, not empty of homes
Spend: withheld at source. The publisher printed a dash here, and a dash is not a zero
The middle earning household here takes home S$11,000–S$11,999 a month (planning area) · 23% earn over S$20,000
Home rents: a residential rent is not published here yet. That is a gap on our side, not a zero
Home sales: home sale is not published here yet. That is a gap on our side, not a zero
Pick what you sell in the app to count competitors. 7 of the 62 trades carry a counted register; a food format without one gets the licensed-food bound instead; the rest say why no count exists.
NEA lists no hawker centre in this corner. Nearest on its list is Bukit Canberra Hawker Centre, 1,157m away (44 stalls)

The app draws this corner’s buildings, shows it on the island map, checks a rent you were quoted against this record and runs your own numbers.

Every receipt for this corner ↓ What this is

surface written 2026-10-12. Every figure on this page is read from that one file

The Wharves: every published receipt

How to read a row: the bold figure is the middle of its range and the figures either side are the range’s ends; “carried” means aggregated up from finer measurements (streets, postals, doors) into this corner, never a direct reading at it. The n is the count behind the figure: contracts, awards, units or taps, by instrument. An absent row carries a code and a side, never an instrument or a date, because nothing was measured. Every rent row was measured per square metre a month by its publisher (URA’s street medians, HDB’s awards over their printed floor area, the portals’ asks) and is printed here per square foot, divided once by this record’s own bridge of 10.76 sqft per sqm.

Who is here
Resident population
withheld at source

suppressed_at_source: withheld or not published at source. GHS 2025 printed a dash for this cell — small counts are withheld to prevent identification of individuals, and suppression is not a population of zero. The dash is denser in the age x sex strata than in the pooled total, which is what suppression of small cells looks like and is itself information

Resident households
withheld at source

suppressed_at_source: withheld or not published at source. GHS publishes no usable dwelling mix for this subzone — SingStat printed a dash, which its own footnotes define as nil OR negligible OR suppressed — three different worlds one glyph cannot distinguish, so this is recorded as the publisher withholding, never as zero. The household count here is the same divide as the spend weights, and with no residents-by-dwelling there is nothing to divide

Daytime workers by place of work (planning area) as of 2025-06-30
36,400 persons

GHS 2025: employed RESIDENTS by workplace planning area. Foreign-worker commuters are outside the frame entirely, so this is a FLOOR on true daytime workers; no-fixed-location (201,500) and work-from-home (82,200) sit in categories, not areas. Planning-area grain: the table publishes nothing finer, so every subzone in SEMBAWANG with premises, taps or residents published at the corner shows this same figure.

Rent: the district’s stamped band, one row per size cell
District 27 · Level 1 (street level) · withheld at this corner
withheld: no parcel here is zoned for a shopfront

no_shopfront_zoned: withheld by our own rule. The figure is published one grain up and not placed here. District 27 stamps a Level 1 (street level) shop-space band of S$12.21–25.29 psf, and this corner is outside the market it describes: under the Master Plan 2025 with amendments, no parcel in this subzone is zoned for a use a ground-floor trade can occupy. The plan does not permit a shopfront here. The land here is reserve site (45% of 9 parcels). Rather than dress a corner with no room for a shop in its district's shop rent, the band is withheld. The district figure is real, its placement here is not. Zoning is permission, not supply: this is the plan's refusal, never a count of shops.

URA PMI district median at DISTRICT grain, not measured at this corner. ALL of this corner's geocoded postals sit in District 27. The stratum is Level 1 (street level), declared here because URA stamps no all-levels, all-bands district median: the 2 size bands pool UNWEIGHTED: lo the lowest of the bands' lows, hi the highest of their highs, mid the median of band medians, because URA publishes no contract counts to weight with; n=3 is its disclosure floor, not a sample size. Read the bands and match your own floor area.

ENTRIES AND EXITS SUMMED on an average weekday, all day. Not boardings. NO station stands within 400m of this corner, which is the radius at which we are willing to say one serves it. The nearest is named anyway, with the same straight-line measurement to its nearest published exit. A corner 20m past the line is not a corner with no railway, and publishing nothing there would be a binary answer to a continuous question. It is not a walking route, and no claim is made that this station serves this corner.

NEA lists NO hawker centre in this corner. Its registry is a census of 129 centres, each carrying its own point, and every one of them was placed (none fell outside a subzone), so this is a measured zero rather than a corner nobody looked at. The nearest is Bukit Canberra Hawker Centre, 1157m from this corner's edge, and it is named for the same reason the nearest station is: a centre just over the boundary is not a centre that does not exist, and a straight "none here" would be a binary answer to a continuous question. Straight-line to its published point, not a walking route, and no claim is made that it sits in this corner.

35,100 earning households of 37,500 in this planning area. PLANNING-AREA grain, not this corner, and EMPLOYMENT income only. The middle figure is the BAND the median earning household falls in. No average is computed, because the top band is "$35,000 & Over" and has no upper value to average. Households with no employed person are outside the denominator, which is SingStat's own convention for income from work; their share is published beside it, because a retiree household is not a poor household, it is one this instrument does not see.

no parcel in this subzone is zoned for a use a ground-floor trade can occupy. The plan does not permit a shopfront here ZONING IS PERMISSION, NOT SUPPLY. This is the share of this corner's zoned land whose use class can hold a shopfront (COMMERCIAL, COMMERCIAL & RESIDENTIAL, RESIDENTIAL WITH COMMERCIAL AT 1ST STOREY, WHITE, BUSINESS PARK - WHITE, HOTEL) under the Master Plan 2025 with amendments. Not floor space that exists, not units for rent, and not a promise any particular unit is licensed for your trade. A low share means the plan gives a shopfront little room here; a high share does not mean anything is built. Each parcel is counted whole in the subzone holding its centroid.
