The town has seven neighbourhoods, with Neighbourhood 1 to the west, and cycling in an anti-clockwise direction to Neighbourhood 6 to the north, and ending with Neighbourhood 7 for the town centre. The town centre is located in the heart of Ang Mo Kio and is sandwiched by two town gardens set on natural hillocks.

​

Following the norm from the seventies, most of the flats are organised in 12-storey long blocks or 25-storey point blocks. In recent years, certain parts of the estate have been rebuilt as part of the long process of renewal. As a result, segments of higher blocks clustered together can be seen interleaved with the older blocks.

​

One particular block, Block 524 at Ang Mo Kio Street 52, stands out for its many cleanliness and friendly neighbourhood awards won over the years. The residents there are known for being especially courteous and helpful towards one another - a trait often seen lacking in modern Singapore.
