A executive HDB flat is cheapest to rent in Punggol, at a median $3,500 a month, and dearest in Clementi at about $5,000.

Across towns, a executive flat typically rents for $3,900 a month, with most leases between $3,600–$4,200. The range matters more than the median when you are budgeting, because two flats of the same type in the same town can still rent hundreds of dollars apart. All figures come from Singapore's data.gov.sg open data and are updated monthly.
