Here are Top 4 reasons why you should consider living in the south. Whether you want to be independent or are planning to start a family, choosing the right location for your home is one of life’s most important decisions.

One of the most promising areas for property investment and homeownership today is southern Metro Manila—a region that includes Las Piñas, Muntinlupa, Parañaque, Taguig, Pasay, and Makati. These cities are known not just for their accessibility but also for the lifestyle they offer. From the peaceful ambiance of suburban living to the convenience of being near key business districts, the South has become a desirable destination for modern homeowners.

Being in the South doesn’t mean being far from professional opportunities. The area offers easy access to major business districts like Bonifacio Global City in Taguig and the Makati Central Business District. Thanks to efficient infrastructure such as the Skyway and major expressways, travel times are significantly reduced. For those who prefer to work closer to home, Alabang’s Madrigal Business Park provides a growing base for multinational companies and local enterprises alike.

Living in East Bay Residences places residents within a well-connected community, close to key leisure and lifestyle hubs like Alabang Town Center, Molito, and Madison Galleries. With nearby schools, shopping hubs, and business districts, convenient access to NAIA, and seamless connections to major roads such as C6 and the South Luzon Expressway, travel to Alabang, Parañaque, Makati, Taguig, Las Piñas, Cavite, and Laguna is easy—making it a central gateway to both the North and South.

Whether it’s a relaxing weekend or a spontaneous evening out, there’s always something to enjoy nearby — from cozy cafés to elegant bars and fine dining spots, the area caters to every mood and preference. With an abundance of new and established dining and entertainment options, south of Manila continues to offer a lively and evolving social scene without the stress of long commutes.
