Valenzuela is one of the most vibrant cities in Metro Manila. Its shine extends beyond the surface, its colorful history and recent progress have created a rich and interesting tapestry. The city is flanked by Quezon City and northern Caloocan City to the east; Obando, Bulacan to the west, Meycauayan, Bulacan to the north; and Caloocan City to the south.
Once quaint, quiet, and agricultural, today’s Valenzuela is now one of the most livable cities in the National Capital Region and the country, with thriving communities and subdivisions, particularly for young professionals.
Here are some of the main reasons why:
Pride in its Rich History
In precolonial times, Valenzuela was a town in Bulacan named ‘Polo.’ The small town started as a small settlement of fishermen lining the coast of Manila Bay. During the Metro Manila uprising against the Spanish regime, however, the humble town of Polo produced one of the triumvirates of the Katipunan, Dr. Pio Valenzuela. Polo was then renamed Valenzuela in honor of its most famous son. Dr. Valenzuela’s old house has been well-preserved, and you can visit it to learn more about the hero and the city’s history along Veliilla St. in the village of Pariancillo Villa.
After the renaming, Valenzuela was formally incorporated as part of Metro Manila. By 1998, the town had expanded in many aspects, effectively becoming a highly urbanized city. Being a Valenzuelaño comes with a certain pride, especially since its people have always stood for patriotism.
Opportunity for Accessible Transport
Known as the “Northern Gateway to Metro Manila,” Valenzuela is serviced by two major highways: the North Luzon Expressway (NLEX) and the MacArthur Highway. The city is located in a covetable spot in which two highways enable its residents to reach the adjacent and nearby provinces of Bulacan, Pampanga, Bataan, and more.
The city is also near other major cities in Metro Manila. You can easily board a jeep or a bus that would take you straight to Manila City, Quezon City, and Caloocan City in just a few minutes.
The city is also part of the PNR railway network through the Valenzuela station. In the next few years, however, Valenzuela residents can also look forward to having a modern subway station. The Metro Manila Subway Project is currently underway, and one of its stations is going to be located in Valenzuela. Once completed, houses and property in Valenzuela will be linked to major business and employment hubs, including Bonifacio Global City in Taguig, Manila, Makati, San Juan, and Mandaluyong. Although the subway station is yet to open, we’re already seeing an increase in demand for house and lot and property for sale, such as gated communities or subdivisions, within the city.
Accessibility is one of the main sale points for house hunters, and Valenzuela abounds in accessibility and convenience.
Excellent Governance
Young professionals can appreciate a government and administration that can support their goals. Valenzuela does not fall short of this. In fact, it’s considered a hub of best governance practices and innovations. The city has been awarded countless accolades, including the Galing Pook Awards, Seal of Good Financial Housekeeping, Cities and Municipalities Competitiveness Index, and the most recent, COVID-19 Response Service Awards.
The local government ensures that their efforts are deserving of these awards, too. Residents enjoy a good quality of life and are guaranteed many more years of high standards of living.
