Under a newly issued decision, Can Tho City in the Mekong Delta  is set to implement four social housing projects on state-managed public land.

These projects have already received approved detailed planning and are part of the city’s portfolio to invite independent social housing investment.

In total, the projects are expected to provide over 3,580 apartments, addressing the housing needs of low-income earners, industrial park workers, and other policy-eligible groups.

The largest of these is "Social Housing Project 004" located in Cai Rang Ward. Spanning nearly 74,000 sq.m at the "Bai cong truong 6" site, the project is designed to offer a minimum of 2,000 apartments with an estimated total investment of approximately VND3.15 trillion (nearly $120 million).

In addition, Project 001 in Thot Not Ward, Project 002 in Vinh Trinh Commune, and Project 003 in Ninh Kieu Ward are also being rolled out with significant scale and capital. While each project has its own unique specifications, they all share the common goal of providing high-quality, affordable housing for local residents.

According to the social housing development plan for the 2026–2030 period, Can Tho City aims to complete nearly 15,000 units by 2030. This initiative not only aligns with the national social housing targets set by the central government but also demonstrates the city’s determination to improve the overall quality of life for its citizens.
