Yio Chu Kang (IPA: /ˌjoʊ ˌtʃuː ˈkɑːŋ/ YOH CHOO KAHNG), alternatively spelt as Yeo Chu Kang, is a sub-urban area in the northeast of Singapore, with proximity to the Ang Mo Kio, Lentor, Seletar and Sengkang areas. Deriving its name from the Yio Chu Kang Village, it is still known for lush greenery and low-density housing with high-rise public housing in its southern fringes.
