That's true. Iloilo city is small in terms of population, but it is highly urbanized and one of the top and cleanest cities in P.I.The third safest city in the nation, following Davao and Makati.The province has approximately 2.5 million inhabitants if you include it (City).
This is the best video and footage I have seen on IloIlo because it actually gives you the feeling of what it's like to be on the ground walking and driving around in the areas that I would want to live in. Thank you for doing this.
I agree. Very good content. Check out another vlogger: 02 Travel TV. He's a Filipino and narrates his videos in English, one of few I've found in regards of the type of content I'm looking for. He and his wife travel all over the Philippines.
Hi Aaron Great 👍 video on visiting Iloilo. It looks like a very clean city with very "fresh" looking building designs that resemble new buildings somewhere in Europe. Thanks and keep up the great work.
I agree I live 6 months in Iloilo in the process of selling my house and moving full-time there hopefully be back September October the latest, but you by far hands-down place to live
In terms of the biggest city I think you confuse Iloilo with Davao. The three biggest cittues in the Philippines are Manila Cebu and Davao. Iloilo is a lovely city and the local government did a good job to modernize and make the city walkable
@@aaronaroundall American retire having problem in spending their retire money go to Iloilo right now it's a better place in iall cities in the philipine I'm a pilipino ok
It is a nice city with low crime rate, strict in public smoking, and cheaper retails prices. Moreover, the FOOD is the Best in the Country. In deed the best city to retire.
@jetd9716 It has no ethnic restaurants compared to Manila. Aside from the Brandy museum in Festival Walk area or a few historical mansions in repair, there is no Okada, Resort World or entertainment. However the historical sights are worth visiting.
@@Gregory-Masovutch it has "ethnic" restaurants, if what you mean is local restaurants. Tatoy's, Breakthrough, Buto't Balat, Netong's, Popoy's are the popular ones. They serve local or "ethnic" cuisine. There's also the local ones that are now famous throughout the whole Philippines, such as Mang Inasal and Ted's Original Lapaz Batchoy. They are ethnic Ilonggo restaurants
It just shows how popular now a days Iloilo City is & a great place to live because there are lots of people who appreciates the place but at the same time a lot of bashers too ganging up & trying to tarnish the image of the city, keep it coming Dudes, hahaha!
I lived in there for 4 months 400 a month pluse electric and water . But electric was only 25 usd water 8 usd crazy cheep walking distance to every thing
@@aaronaroundyes it is the condo was on 8th floor wind blows right through the place and at night it’s cool no need for ac I’m from Florida heat don’t bother me
Iloilo looks nice, I haven't visited there yet but to me it looks like a Cebu-type place, or growing to that level. I prefer more provincial/less busy cities like Dumaguete, where I currently live. Although Duma is growing quickly too. But we don't have stoplights (traffic lights) yet so that's one way to measure it, ha!
Capiz and Negros Province. Western Visayas have the highest Human Development Index and Poverty Rate in Visayas and Mindanao region. Best outside Luzon
@@Penko-mu2 haahhaha Capiz is one the poorest provinces in teh Philippines along with Antique, Iloilo is poorer than CDO as per PSA, has the same level of GNP of Lapu-Lapu, Mandaue with the same population LORDS over Iloilos economy. another delusion Ilonggoy
It can never be another Cebu it is a mid size city of 400,00 compare to Metro Cebus 3 million city population, second Iloilo is decades behind and is much poorer than Cebu, Iloilo lacks capital and foreign investment, in Visayas all factories are in Cebu, the Philippines Shipbuilding capital, Steel, Cement and manufacturing in Cebu
nice video, but too short for me, lol. I'm coming to Iloilo in November to live and will be looking for a 1 bdrm condo after I get there. being 74, I'm looking for a nice peaceful city I can explore and enjoy the beaches as well. I believe there I'll be able to ride a motorcycle or an e-bike.
Hello guyz love always watching featuring my City..I really love Iloilo City my best place to live ...wherein I can buy cheap fruits and veges and fresh fishes ...
I'm a local here in Iloilo and the way I've been seeing in the news how things are going on around the country, I'm glad that I could relax and be carefree. It's true it's very peaceful and clean. Been a blessing with these walkable streets. From what I've seen improve, the low-to-no cime rate really has been the biggest surprise. I could walk even in the middle of the night and feel safe on the streets. Check the plazas at night, especially Molo and Jaro Plaza. They are starting to develop the coastal areas heading north and I'm excited. Plus if you really want an active lifestyle this is the place to be. You can visit downtown or metro by just walking beside the esplanade that spans through the Iloilo river.
Bacolod City is three times larger than Iloilo City in terms of area. The population of Iloilo City in 2023 is 447,000 based on google, and the population of Iloilo Province exceeds 2 million people. Being the regional and business center of the entire region, Iloilo attracts many people daily from other provinces such as Aklan, Capiz, Antique, and Guimaras who come here to transact in various government regional offices. It is also a major educational center in the entire region, where many people from other provinces primarily come to study.
Davao city is 10x larger in land area and 4x the population compare to Iloilo. Davao is a melting pot from all over the country. Strangely enough, 15% of Davao population are from Iloilo, originally, same goes with other southern Mindanao towns and cities. Bacolod, 70% of population are 3rd or 4th generation are from Iloilo too. Migrants from sugar boom 120 years ago. Iloilo city is pretty much 90% Ilonggo in ethnicity.
Cebu has a small land area for commercial purposes thats why they're building it in just 1 or 2 kilometers from the shore and stretch it all along the coastline. No way they can make a cheap meticulous urban development unless they resort to reclamation. Unlike in Iloilo where construction is just starting up and a lot of space to accommodate these new developments.
@@aaronaround Yes and if developers will spare the farmlands and just use all available idle lands then economically Iloilo will have 2 inexhaustible source of income. Unlike in mining for example which Cebu has.
Which areas would you recommend to stay a month+? And is there a place with a walking distance to a beach/shops? If not, what to use as a transportation?
I would recommend megaword or the avida I showed in the building. If you stay in megaworld you can walk to everything. I didn't go to the beach there but I know there are supposed to be nice beaches no more than an hour away
The exchange rate in Malls are usually small. If you want to change your currency, go to shops outside of the mall, they usually have a higher exchange rate.
@@aaronaround there is one in Iloilo as I'm from this place. But I'm not sure on other provinces. Banks are way higher. Better stick to Malls though. SM City had one as well.
Iloilo must construct its own coliseom for their events. Such as volleyball basketball, concert. Dont depend only to san agustin. Building arena in megaworld is good
It's beautiful and well done video but as a single man fear of boredom. I'm currently living in Manila but I've lived in Cebu City, Dumaguete, and Davao City
@@aaronaround I think k foreigners can own a small to medium size business. I remembered that the previous administration put that into law since Charter Change is still out of reach. How I wish they would amend that constitution for more inviting business climate. I still don't know for sure about the ownership but I specifically remembered that Duterte signed that into law.
Some of the best hospitals in the Philippines can be found in Iloilo City. We have a lot of best Medical and Nursing Schools in Iloilo. For your info, the first Nursing School in the Philippines is in Iloilo founded by American Missionaries
We just came back from Iloilo. Island hopping is good, Garin Farm with the steps to Christ is impressive, Megaworld mall architecture is nice, however eateries are limited. SM looks a bit dated. Festive Mall condos overpriced as hell at 10M. There are no views from the condos other than shacks. No ocean or Bay. They're asking Makati prices without near the amenities. Hospitals severely limited except for Iloilo Medical City. Nuvali, Tagaytay, Makati, Amado, Alfonzo, far superior places to live. A waste to retire in Iloilo.
Correction here's the line up for the biggest metropolitan cities 1. Metro Manila 2. Metro Cebu 3. Metro Davao It is not Manila, Cebu, Iloilo line up I think Iloilo is the 5th largest metropolitan city right after Metro CDO
Latest findings shows Iloilo is sinking by few cm per year...there's a flyover & it's sinking ...Iloilo is surrounded by brackish water river & the Land below the buildings not stable & strong enough. To hold many stories high buildings or heavy infrastructures ....?
@@heavensgrain2521 not in iloilo there was one time for almost 1 week completed 7 days last few months ago where brownout happens. it so annoying especially at night when you need the fan or ac because its too warm and you need to work at home. Im not an expat but a local so i know.
I liked and followed your blog. But now I unsub. If you prefer Ilo-ilo respectfully it's your choice. But why specifically target graphically Dumaguete with a thumbs down vs Ilo-ilo, how about Bohol, CDO, Davao, Bagiuo and others. What nasty experience have you in Dumaguete? Do you need to do that? We are people of Dumaguete and it's quite a slap. Then you put your face in your videos, that's great, mind where you go, then bash the place.
Kulang ang iloilo sa malaking coliseum. Lagi na lang sa San Augustin pag may mga event . Maganda kung may maitayo sa bandang megaworld madali dayuhin ng tao pag may mga event volleyball man o basketball o kya concert. Wala man lang balak magtayo pamahalaan ng arena. Malinis ang iloilo at organise yan lang kulang kya Sana makita ng governor ng iloilo ang kahalagahan ng arena o coliseum.
The 3 Major or Biggest Cities in the Philippines are Manila, Cebu and Davao these 3cities contributed larger economy and the center for business and trades. iloilo is a nice but not a major city.
Villar, Araneta, Gokongwei, Montinola, and many more had Ilonggo roots even big businesses CEO like SM, Robinsons, Ayala, and many more are Ilonggos too. Real talk
Yes the 3 biggest failure cities of the Philippines in terms of urban planning and population management. These cities are simply gateways not necessarily the biggest contributor in our economy because the Philippines is still an agricultural country. a magnet for cheap labors where people from the countryside are duped by the shrewd businesses and businessmen.😁
@@alexonorep5978 Correction, Metro Manila economy counts 35% of the whole Philippines economy at $140 billions 2023 GDPnominal. and DAVAO CITY economy is the largest among the Cities outside Metro Manila with $12Billions 2023GDP nominal.
@@alexonorep5978 cheap labor? Mataas pa daily wage Ng Iloilo kaysa Cebu at Davao. What did you say na Ang Iloilo is not big contributor of the economy? Did you know Iloilo is home of big name in tycoon in the Philippines? Villar , Lopez, montinola, ledesma and many more. Iloilo is the best seafarers product in the Phil. Why did you say na Ang Iloilo failure Ang urban planning? Kaya nga sinunod Ng ibang Lugar at example nga nila Ang iloilo like esplanade at diversion road and culture, mansion, churches and public market renovation. Wait lng ha Iloilo and french company construct desalination facility biggest in the Phil that can produce 65,000 cubic mtr of water from salt to fresh water. And ictsi is now operate cargo handling in Iloilo.

Yeah well it is a good place and a lot of people don't go there as much I don't think

Iloilo look amazing and clean.

Yeah you should. I know but it seems to be on the top of everyone's list
It is a nice city with low crime rate, strict in public smoking, and cheaper retails prices. Moreover, the FOOD is the Best in the Country. In deed the best city to retire.
Really the best food in the country?
I doubt it can beat Manila in food. It’s cream dela creame here.
@@aaronaroundit's the first and only UNESCO Creative City for Gastronomy in the Philippines

not particularly to be honest
I love ILOILO. I married a girl who lives near ILOILO in 2022. It has cool malls there too.
nice yeah it is a good city. Just enough to do I think as well
Easy to find a good pinay there?
I wish Ilo-ilo will construct the first skyscraper(150 meters+) in that area.
oh wow
Looks like a great spot
oh yeah it is nice

Sir, please visit the Old downtown of Iloilo city ❤❤❤the first Mang inasal in Robinson carpark Iloilo city
oh really that's the first location?
K-Town not k-pop 😅. The place where many restobars are located is called Smallville.
haha yeah
Iloilo must construct its own coliseom for their events. Such as volleyball basketball, concert. Dont depend only to san agustin. Building arena in megaworld is good
You visit concentrated in the business district. It's evolving.
I'm a 2 yr resident in avida.
Oh yeah big time
It looks like a mall in California. If only to escape the heat of PH but it looks like a "bubble" to avoid the exoticness of PH.
Yeah it does right. Well it is nice that's for sure
I would like someone to do a comparison video for iloilo and cdo?
I know I know ... someone definitely has
Looks nice. Gonna see if there are any Ayala subdivisions out there. I might move out of Manila.
There’s a ton of avida which I think is owned by Ayala
Avida Village and Amaia Scapes :))
It’s the real queen city of the south! Iloilo
Very true sir
Very nice guy bro
It's beautiful and well done video but as a single man fear of boredom.
I'm currently living in Manila but I've lived in Cebu City, Dumaguete, and Davao City
Oh wow well you have had the grand tour... yeah well you might get bored there
Thank u for coming to iloilo❤🙏
Pro tip. Every business no matter the name is local locals must own 50% of any and all businesses
I thought they changed that a few years back
@@aaronaround I think k foreigners can own a small to medium size business. I remembered that the previous administration put that into law since Charter Change is still out of reach.

More safe and way clean than Davao City and Cebu City
safer than davao?
If you were going to stay long term in the Phil’s which city would you live in
hm I think right now it would be Cebu or maybe davao... although I do really like Iloilo
@aaronaround so cebu is first choice?
ILOILO LOOKS BEAUTIFUL AND GOOD URBAN PLANNING . I DONT SEE SQUATTERS AREA COMPARED TO BACOLOD CITY AND DUMAGUETE
Yeah it's true I don't know where they are
dumaguete is a big joke. I will not go back therr
Of course there are squatters, even along the famous Esplanade or in Lapaz and Lapuz
and along the shore, rivers and creeks.
I don’t drink or party either and still have a girlfriend when I was not looking for one. Btw, I’m 67. What about hospitals and clinics?
You know I didn't look too much into that but I did see a couple big hospitals
a big hospital brand new for foreigner philipine is a country of love philipine is a son of Cristian ok
Some of the best hospitals in the Philippines can be found in Iloilo City. We have a lot of best Medical and Nursing Schools in Iloilo. For your info, the first Nursing School in the Philippines is in Iloilo founded by American Missionaries
Thank you 💚
No worries thanks for checking in

Yeah I do think it was a little cheaper but I hear you
Correction here's the line up for the biggest metropolitan cities
1. Metro Manila
2. Metro Cebu
3. Metro Davao
It is not Manila, Cebu, Iloilo line up
I think Iloilo is the 5th largest metropolitan city right after Metro CDO
yea I know I just mean in terms of popularity seems like the top three tend to be manila Cebu Iloilo

I don't see why not
Iloilo is a very welcoming city with warm hospitality. It is called the city of love. Everybody is welcome
Is there always a power interruption?
oh everywhere you go is the best , 😂😂😂. Live there 6 monthsc and then give an opinion
yeah of course new discoveries haha
Latest findings shows Iloilo is sinking by few cm per year...there's a flyover & it's sinking ...Iloilo is surrounded by brackish water river & the Land below the buildings not stable & strong enough. To hold many stories high buildings or heavy infrastructures ....?

Reported crime statistics for Southeast Asia shows Manila as #1 (highest), Cebu #6 and IloIlo #9.
