A striking feature of Viet Nam’s remarkable progress over the last few decades is the rapid
pace of urbanisation. In 1986, there were fewer than there are 30 million urban residents. Today
there are 30 million. Cities have become strong growth forces, with urban areas growing twice as
fast as the national average rate, and contributing over half of the country’s gross domestic
product.
Viet Nam needs to reshape its urbanization process to create more efficient cities - cities that
have sufficient population densities are well connected internally and regionally, and well
managed. In addition, in line with Viet Nam's strong preference for social equity, cities will need
to ensure inclusion of all residents, with no groups or area “left behind."
Meanwhile, rural residents increasingly lag behind their urban counterparts in income and
access to services, leading many to migrate to cities. Migration presents challenges for urban
management but also opportunities to enhance labor mobility. Fortunately, these trends can be
reversed.

narrow enough for one motorbike to get through. Store owner Bui Thi Mai knows how a clean and
