“Where can I buy my first home in the metro?”

This website and other tools can help you look at your real estate options in terms of location. You should look for a city that is in harmony with residential structures and natural landscape. That place should be conducive to health and well-being as well. Choose a livable city that provides choices for its citizens, enabling them to earn and enjoy life with or without family.

Great list. Thanks for sharing!
I would love to live anywhere besides Manila for a change. Away from the busy streets and crowded people. Thanks for this list!
We currently live in Caloocan and it's really ok naman to live in our place.
We live in North Luzon now and the environment is peaceful and quiet :)
You should have added Taguig. As we have bought some condo properties in the area and we were advised it's better and cheaper than getting in Makati.
Sharing this post with my boss. He wants to buy a house here so that when he travels from the US, he has a place to crash in instead of staying in a hotel
This is a very helpful list, I bookmarked the post already, thanks.
I would love to try living in Davao since I heard how peaceful and beautiful that place is now. I have tried living in Makati and though it's much safer than the other places (like Manila & QC), I find the kind of living in Makati quite costly.
I wish to visit Cebu and Davao in the future. I know that few cities in the metro would be really great because everywhere is accessible unlike to us here in Pampanga.
If I am to live in a city that will be Davao. I have heard a lot of positive comments about the city and it is the safest place in the country.
