Savills Vietnam’s Q2/2025 report reveals that the average primary selling price in Ho Chi Minh City during 2024 and Q1/2025 reached approximately 90 million VND per square meter. Against this backdrop, a noticeable shift towards key connectivity hubs is underway, with National Highway 13 emerging as a standout choice.
National Highway 13 – The Leading Axis for Residential Relocation
National Highway 13 is a vital transportation artery connecting Ho Chi Minh City to the Northeast region, particularly the former province of Binh Duong, one of the fastest urbanizing and industrially developing localities in the country. According to the General Statistics Office, Binh Duong is among the provinces attracting a large influx of migrant workers, with hundreds of thousands of professionals, engineers, and laborers settling long-term.
Additionally, the area along National Highway 13 is benefiting from long-term public transportation infrastructure development plans, including the expansion to 10 lanes, up to 60 meters wide, and the construction of Metro Line 2, significantly reducing travel time between home and work. In practice, many young professionals working in Ho Chi Minh City’s center but residing in the bordering areas of former Binh Duong have chosen National Highway 13 as a “balance point” between distance, cost, and quality of life.
Apartments Along National Highway 13 Catering to Real Housing Needs
Today’s youth are no longer drawn to speculative or overly luxurious projects; instead, they prioritize developments that meet genuine housing needs. A CBRE Vietnam survey indicates that buyers under 35 focus on affordability, convenient transportation, and a stable living environment over extravagant amenities.
Residential projects along National Highway 13 excel in meeting these criteria: Proximity to industrial zones and employment hubs reduces daily commute stress; more affordable pricing compared to the city center enables young buyers to own their first home; and diverse amenities cater to family life, fostering a stable community.
This is why many young individuals now view settling in this area as a long-term choice, aligning with their financial plans and lifestyle, rather than a temporary solution.
Long-Term Settlement Over Short-Term Choices
Instead of enduring long-term renting or purchasing homes under significant financial strain, young buyers are proactively seeking areas with sustainable development potential, where living value and property value can grow together over time. National Highway 13, with its connectivity advantages and urban development potential, is increasingly meeting these expectations.
Experts note that in a real estate market trending toward stability and transparency, projects focused on genuine housing needs, strong connectivity, and clear legal frameworks will remain buyer priorities.
