People looking for permanent homes away from Metro Manila, but relatively closer that driving to and fro is not much a hassle, are now looking to nearby provinces in Central Luzon.
Home to seven provinces—Aurora, Bataan, Bulacan, Nueva Ecija, Pampanga, Tarlac, and Zambales—with a vast agricultural topography, Region III offers a lot of potential for growth, what with more investors coming to the region to do business.
Central Luzon currently boasts infrastructures that can support, if rival, those of Metro Manila’s, such as the Clark International Airport, which serves as the country’s gateway to Central and Northern Luzon provinces, and is on its way to becoming the Philippines’ aviation hub.
Also soon to rise is the New Manila International Airport in Bulacan, whose design capacity is expected to serve to 100 million passengers per year.
The ongoing construction of 14-station MRT 7 is seen to provide ease of travel from Bulacan to Metro Manila by just half an hour away.
Several expressways linking Central Luzon to Metro Manila and its surrounding regions are in operation or are already in progress, including the Subic-Clark-Tarlac Expressway and Central Luzon Link Expressway, among others.
Region III also boasts a significant contribution to economic growth in the Philippines, thanks to the impressive performances of Central Luzon’s emerging cities and special economic zones. The three freeport zones: Clark Freeport Zone, Bataan Freeport Zone, and Subic Freeport Zone, have contributed to an improved connectivity within the region, resulting in more investments, more jobs, and increased economic growth.
Also set to drive progress in the region is the new Clark City Government Administrative Center, which will house satellite offices of the executive, legislative, and judiciary branches of the government, along with their attached agencies.
Suffice to say, the region serves as a viable home for families that do not want to leave the urban comforts behind. Amaia Land offers several projects in the region’s progressive towns and cities like San Jose del Monte and Sta. Maria in Bulacan; Cabanatuan in Nueva Ecija, San Fernando and Mexico in Pampanga; and Capas in Tarlac.
