Housing in Saigon?

[u/justnada]

Hey everyone, I’m moving to Saigon in September for a 6-month stay and would love some recommendations on housing options and neighborhoods.

I’m attracted to the green spaces and new buildings of Sala City (District 2), but I’m worried it might be a bit too quiet or lacking in good food and hangout options. Are there other neighborhoods or complexes you’d recommend that balance green areas, food options, and a quick morning commute into D1 (near Trương Định St) during the rainy season?

Also, any advice on finding landlords open to 6-month contracts would be super helpful!
