District 2
District 2 is well-known as an “expats zone” due to the fact lots of foreigners decided to settle here. What makes D2 special is Thao Dien and An Phu Ward. If you get homesick easily, D2 will give you comfort arms by other fellows.
Some of the best apartments and houses in Ho Chi Minh City are located in these areas such as Masteri An Phu, Gateway, Palm Heights,.. (Click to get more interesting deals in D2). While the area has stirred up with more fancy restaurants, international schools, bars… the neighbourhood still retains a laidback and low-paced life with the local sense of community.
District 4
Had a bad reputation for having lots of gangsters, but District 4 has turned into one of the best districts for expats to settle. As many luxury apartments, shopping malls are rising along the canal, District 4 has gone through crazy developments for the past decade. D4 is surely developing and a place expats now consider to find a home. It is a bit cheaper than District 1, but not by much. A nice 2 bedrooms apartment would be around $600/month, and Hoozing has lots of options for you.
District 4 is also an amazing place for street food. There is lots of places to get street food like Vinh Khanh street or Ben Van Don street. If you are visiting Ho Chi Minh City and that you are very much into street food, you might as well have to go to D4 and roam in some streets full of different local eateries.
District 7
For foreigners who are planning to invest and settle in Vietnam for a long-term period, District 7 is one of the best districts to stay in. High-quality residences such as apartments and houses are located here, but the highlight is that the district values health-friendly neighborhoods with extensive gardens and large trees.ng
