I've found a job in HCMC and I'm moving there in a little more than a week.
I've never been to Vietnam before (or Asia for that matter). I've read a bit about the city and looked at a few real estate websites, but I'm not sure where I should look for an apartment and what would be the best location for me.
I'll be working in district 5 and I'd like to live close to work (ideally within a walking distance). However, I haven't found much information about D5 (just that there aren't many expats living there).
I'd prefer to rent a small apartment ( a studio or one-bed) and I guess my budget would be about $500.
Any tips or info will be greatly appreciated.
