It’s the best place to live and work and go to school. I’ve lived here for 20 years and it’s the best location in the metro. It’s really the middle of everything. It’s close to the central business districts – ortigas, makati, and BGC. Taxis or Grab cars are available 24/7. So many delivery options, lots of nice condos to choose from too. Near schools, hospitals, and malls too.

Mandaluyong City is the center of Metro Manila. It’s right next to major cities like Pasig, Makati, Manila, San Juan and Quezon City. Living in Mandaluyong makes commuting to these cities easier because of all available public transportation. And Mandaluyong has some of the biggest shopping establishments in the metro.

The main advantage of living in my city is it’s a business center. A lot of big establishments are in Mandaluyong City that’s why there are so many jobs for different fields. The transportation system is also very convenient. It is really a good city for small and large businesses.

One’s primary consideration in moving to this city should be traffic because arguably, the city incorporates one of the busiest roads in the country – Epifanio de los Santos Avenue, which interestingly served as the “stage” of the infamous Philippine People Power Revolution. The public transport system is one of the worst especially for those who prefer the daily commute to work.

Traffic in Mandaluyong City gets quite congested especially during rush hours, where cars would be stuck on the highways for hours. The city however, looks quite beautiful at night and has a nice scenery which draws many people to come here. my city also has many landmarks that would draw the attention of many tourists.

Someone moving to Mandaluyong City must know it is a nice place to move. It is in the middle of Philippines National Capital Region, you’ll experience traffic sometimes but not much compare to other nearby cities. There’s shopping malls, church, markets, and schools inside our hometown.

They must considered the price of the apartment complex in the city. The rent is kind of steep, so you must learn how to budget well. Also, be ready to walk lengths, for traffic here is very unpredictable. There are lots of places to go to, such as markets and groceries. Doing errands would not be that difficult to do.

The first thing know in my city is that all the business districts are connected to it. Makati, Quezon City, Taguig and Ortigas are all one transportation away. The next would be the malls. They are also near and some of them are also walking distance.

If you intend to transfer to Mandaluyong City, know traffic enforcers here are very strict and can’t be bribed. Our city also does not tolerate littering and spitting. That is why we pride ourselves as the cleanest city with the most disciplined people in Metro Manila.

Our city is one of those that has a well-planned design. Around the city hall, the necessary establishments are built namely the city hospital, the main police department, and the markets. It is also at the center of Metro Manila near the main highway, which is convenient for employees to travel from home to their work and back.

Should someone be interested in moving here, they would have to be comfortable living in a loud and fast-paced environment. Markets and malls are always full to the brim with people, and one must always be alert to avoid getting lost or inconvenienced. Throngs are always competing for the next jeep, taxi, and tricycle to get to work on time. However, busy and packed as it may seem, Mandaluyong is also full of life. There’s always something to do and people to meet.

Mandaluyong is a great place. It is a quiet place, has a fresh air and safe surrounding. But keep in mind that nobody can be trusted and that floods are the biggest problem. Traffics are nerve wracking but the view along the road can ease it. Transportation is good though.

It is the Tiger City. We have different malls, schools and hospitals around. Traffic is heavy in the morning because our city is at the center and the most convenient place. Our neighborhood are very strict in implementing the barangay’s rules and law, but we are all friendly and approachable.

Mandaluyong is in close proximity to the business capital of the Philippines. It’s in the heart of Metro Manila. It’s less than an hour from the Ninoy Aquino International Airport. It’s also less than an hour from the best malls like Rockwell Power Plant Mall, SM Megamall, Glorietta, and Greenbelt.

Mandaluyong City is a center business district. Know living in this city entails high cost of living. Traffic in the area should also be looked upon, as it is a very busy road. The good thing of staying here is that it is accessible to a handful of establishments.
