Social housing is a type of accommodation for disadvantaged individuals and households. This term has been clearly defined in the Law on Housing 2014 as houses supported by the Government for use by entities benefiting from housing support programs under this Law.
The eligibilities for such entities are clearly listed in Article 49 of this Law, mostly are poor, low-income or underprivileged individuals and households living in either rural or urban areas, students, employee working within or outside industrial zones, officials and civil servants, officers working in the agencies of People’s Police and People’s Army.
Most of the social housing projects are located in major cities and provinces namely Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City, Bac Giang, Lam Dong, Thua Thien Hue. The location either might or might not be at people’s convenience regarding accessibility to necessary facilities such as hospitals, schools, workplace, etc. Typically, such projects were mainly carried out by domestic developers such as HUD Vietnam, BIC Vietnam, Him Lam in the northern region; Vicoland, Xuan Phu Hai, Saigon Investgroup in the central region; and Sacomreal, Nam Long, Hoang Quan in the southern regions.
We would like to share some thoughts on the challenges during the development process below.
