PropertyGuru Autocomplete API turns search text into districts, areas, neighbourhoods, MRT and LRT stations and projects. Each result has an id, type, display text, description, district and coordinates when known. Districts in Singapore and areas and regions in Malaysia also carry a ready search_filter you can pass to the Search API. An empty list is a successful, billable response.
