In this video, travel professional, Jim Kellett gives us a tour of the best neighborhood in Da Nang for expats, digital nomads, and retirees. Vietnam’s Da Nang offers an affordable cost of living, making it attractive for expats, digital nomads, and retirees. Long-term expat rentals start around $880 per month, while short-term digital nomad rentals are approximately $1,180 per month. The neighborhood of An Thuong is popular among expats, with a mix of local and international businesses. Food costs are low, with street food options starting at $1.50 per meal. Danang’s development and accessibility to beaches and mountains make it an appealing destination for those seeking an affordable lifestyle. The city has a vibrant expat community, and business opportunities have a low entry barrier. The video also highlights the cost of healthcare, transportation, and activities in Da Nang and Hoi An, Vietnam. Hoi An, a UNESCO World Heritage site, is just a 45-minute drive away, offering picturesque streets, custom-tailored clothing, and a rich cultural heritage.

  • I left China to move to Da Nang, Chinese people told me I was moving to a poor third world country, so I was pleasantly surprised by how nice, clean and friendly Vietnam was. I'm surprised Chinese have such a negative view of Vietnam actually, I prefer living here to China.
  • Had some dental work done in Da Nang. Excellent job. $1400. I was quoted $12,000 in Canada. Even with the dollar exchange it can never be justified in Canada

    A 90 day visa is $25 currently. The rental prices are a tad higher than what I'm seeing. I have a 1 bedroom with a beach view for $193 per month in Da Nang.

    I haven't been in Da Nang in about 12 years. I so wish I could live there full-time! It's such a gorgeous city.
  • @shabblabbat
    So clean and beautiful. Da Nang makes San Diego look like a 3rd World horror show, which it is. What a terrific video, thank you.
  • @HueNguyen-sh2dv
    Great video! Very informative. Will in da nang in 5 weeks. Definitely will check out some the spots mentioned in your video. Yes.. please make a video about hoi an

    Watching this video, I realized how stupid I was when I left the beautiful, inexpensive Vietnam to move to the USA. Currently, it cost my family of 4 (my wife, myself daughter 15 years old and son 10 years old) about $7,500 US dollars/month to live in Richmond, VA. I booked a hotel in Virgina Beach, Virginia for this July 4th holiday for two nights for $500.00/night.

    We were in Da Nang last year, but only for two days as we were exiting Vietnam. Will be going back in 2025 for a longer stay. This year we are visiting Kuching, Malacca, and Batam. This was really a pleasant video, and the gentleman in the video that was being interviewed seemed genuinely nice. Also love what his wife is doing with her restaurant. We will definitely try to make it to their restaurants the next time we come to Vietnam. 👍 Every time I am in SE Asia I feel very much at peace...absolutely love being in that part of the world.

    Great to see Danang looking grear. It was one of my fav cities in the early 00s.
  • @mrbHanoi

    Both Danang and Hoi An a wonderful places. The people are friendly and laid back. Hoi An probably has more tailor shops per capita than anywhere else in the world. They are fast, skilled and very reasonable. There is a great public market in Hoi An with an assortment of local dishes. Both places are great to walk around and safe. The beach in Danang is legendary. It was a top R and R spot during the American war and site of an old TV series called China Beach which was the name the GIs gave to the beautiful My Khe Beach.

    I’m in Da Nang. Most livable city. Great video. Can you do a video on province/village living in area of Da Nang/Hoi An how expats may integrate? 🙏🏼
  • I have watched a lot of videos about Da Nang, this is one of the best if not the best. I want to visit soon.
  • Very well made video, I am impressed by all the great information, the scenery, the food, the interview. You are definitely one of the best on Youtube. Well done sir👍🏽
  • @waylinnelson

    I just watched the video and realized that I missed out on the opportunity to explore some amazing neighborhoods and restaurants while I was there last month. The food looks appealing and is priced very reasonably.
