Nghe An province in central Vietnam has approved investment policies and detailed 1:500 planning for 41 social housing projects covering a total area of 107 ha, with an estimated scale of 36,000 apartments.

Among the approved projects, 34 already have investors in place, accounting for nearly 28,000 units, while 7 others—representing around 8,000 units—are still seeking investment.

Notably, all projects are designed with synchronized technical and social infrastructure, including kindergartens, preschools, markets, and shopping centers, to meet the essential needs of future residents.

In 2025, the Prime Minister assigned Nghe An a target of constructing 1,420 social housing units. However, in just over half a year, the province has already completed 2,381 units, and is expected to reach approximately 2,517 units by year-end—far exceeding the original target set under Decision No. 44/QĐ-TTg dated February 27, 2025.

Previously, during the 2021–2024 period, under the national initiative to build at least one million social housing units for low-income earners and industrial park workers by 2030, the province completed 1,675 units across three projects. This means that in 2025 alone, the province has already outperformed the combined results of the previous four years.

In parallel with social housing development, Nghe An has also prioritized the construction of accommodation facilities for workers and experts. Over the past three years, the province has launched five housing complexes, providing stable living conditions for tens of thousands of workers in industrial zones.
