After perusing the answers to where to live in Thailand (other than Nakhon Sawan) and as it will be necessary to be in Bangkok a little longer than planned, I was interested in where TDorians think the best places to live in Bangkok itself are. Keep in mind access to shopping, some decent bars, local food and entertainment, preferably within walking distance condo or house, relatively close to some form of Rail as I dislike driving in Bangkok. My apologies if this has been done before. Also preferably where the rent is not poisonously expensive.
