It’s a budget-friendly version of most of the northern cities of the National Capital Region (such as Makati, Quezon, and Pasig City) as plenty of small businesses can be found in the innermost part of the city. The city can be explored and diverges from the main road of Alabang-Zapote Road, so there is a lot of public transportation available. However, rush hour can be a difficult time to travel in (7 AM and 6 PM) as many are commuting home. There are an abundance of malls and grocery stores to purchase your everyday goods and some farmer’s markets (or ‘palengke’ as we call them) around.

When someone is considering moving my city, Las Pinas, they should be prepared for the bad traffic they’ll experience. Search and buy a place in advance before moving in because vacancies in our city run out fast. Despite these bad characteristics of our city, everything you need is available here. Shopping malls, markets, restaurants, and job opportunities are present here.

Transportation is not a problem for commuters, you can even just walk to the nearest convenience store. We are surrounded by cities like Sucat, Paranaque, Muntinlupa and Cavite.

Las Piñas city has a big population. You should be prepared for the terrible traffic in Las Piñas city, but if you would be working in the city it is more convenient to live there. Everyday is a hassle just going to work with all the cars and public utility vehicles on the streets. There are also four malls that make traffic worse unlike other cities that would just have one or two.

The City where I live is a very quiet neighborhood, most people know each other that is why we feel safe. It’s also very accessible to our basic necessities like food, groceries, and medicines. And the best part is that we are very near to one of the biggest malls which are the SM Southmall. And transportation is not a problem since we have tricycles and jeepneys if in case you don’t own a car.

There are a lot of subdivisions residing within the city, so proper knowledge of the twists and turns within villages would prove to be a great help. Considering this, there are also respective stickers for cars which would allow passage of guard houses. Failure to purchase these stickers will result in payment for each and every time one must pass through these said guard houses.

The most important thing to know about moving here is the convenience it provides to its residents. Las Piñas City has a single straight line main road, Alabang-Zapote, which stretches for several miles. Within this road, there are plenty of malls and other facilities that are easily accessible since the barangays and other villages have their entrance/exits near these facilities.

It is a beautiful city. There are lots of trees and the people are nice. Also, there are many shopping malls to go to on the weekends. However, traffic is quite heavy, so you better be prepared for the rush hour. A usual 5-minute drive would take up to 20 minutes during rush hour.

Las Piñas City is suburban area with a number of large shopping centers, hospitals, and schools. Without traffic, it would take a commuter an hour or two to get to the neighboring financial districts. A person moving to my city should take the following into account:

1) Due to an influx of foreign workers, the rent for most places is around 20 percent higher than normal. Local landlords favor foreign tenants because they usually pay a year or six months in advance, versus local tenants who pay once a month and at a much lower rate.

2) It would be best to know some English and Tagalog.

If you are looking for a country style of living, you shouldn’t consider living in Las Piñas City. It is already a very populous and busy city, not to mention traffic is always heavy. However, if you desire accessibility, Las Piñas City is in the heart of the metropolis, with prime access to huge malls, schools and hospitals.

Las Piñas city is in the heart of Metro Manila, Philippines. This is one of the best cities in Manila where you can stay or reside permanently. In the past, most of its area fell under the Rizal province but later on it was included in Metro Manila. Then just few years ago, this town was upgraded to become a city because of the capacity to generate high income because of its dwellers.

Las Piñas City, as it is now being called, is known for it famous “Bamboo Organ”. This historic organ, created by Father Diego Cera in early 1800s, can produce high-pitch melodies. The organ itself is made up of bits of bamboos that were put together so as to produce the different clicks for baritones. The magnificence of music as it is being played every masses attracts people from all classes. Visitors flock to the city not because of the big malls on it but rather they want to witness the majestic playing of the historic bamboo organ.

The city is also tagged as the “cleanest city in Metro Manila” for the past years. The mayor allots a fraction of the budget to keeping the cleanliness of the city plus major undertakings on the continuous upgrade of the city when it comes to keeping it green. Planting trees and other ornamental plants in the area thrive among barangays.
