Pasir Ris is primarily a residential area in Singapore comprising many high rise residential dwelling blocks, mostly public housing built by the Housing and Development Board. It is located right next to the Eastern coast of Singapore. Like other new towns, public transport was factored into the development of Pasir Ris. Pasir Ris is easily accessible via bus and Mass Rapid Transit.
In close proximity to the sea, Pasir Ris has several recreation areas like NTUC Downtown East and Pasir Ris Park, which have facilities like chalets, theme parks, and bowling alleys.
Pasir Ris is also part of the Jurong Town Corporation's plan to develop wafer fabrication facilities in Singapore. The other two locations are Tampines and Woodlands. Presently, there are two major wafer fabrication parks in Pasir Ris. Companies situated there include United Microelectronics Corporation and Systems on Silicon Manufacturing.
