Studio Apartment for Rent in District 3, Ho Chi Minh City, Binh An Home — $400/month
You won't find many studios in District 3 at this price point, which is exactly why this Binh An Home listing catches attention. A compact 20 square meter apartment on Ly Chinh Thang Street offers solid value for expats looking to keep housing costs low without sacrificing location or cleanliness.
The property
This second-floor studio is fully furnished and move-in ready. Twenty square meters is tight, but the layout works: bedroom area with a proper bed, compact bathroom with hot water, and a small living space. The walls are clean, the furniture is functional, and there's enough natural light from the window. It's not spacious, but it's dignified and well-maintained, unlike some budget studios you'll find in older HCMC buildings.
What's included
The rental price covers several things that matter:
- Fully furnished bedroom and living area
- All utilities except electricity (water is included)
- Professional cleaning twice per month
- Hot water
- Lockable front door, secure second-floor access
Electricity runs on a meter; you pay for what you use, typically $10–20/month depending on air conditioning habits.
The location
Ly Chinh Thang Street sits in a quiet corner of District 3, close to the Ben Nghe Ward. You're a short motorbike ride or 15-minute walk from District 1 restaurants and cafes. The neighborhood itself is Vietnamese-majority, which means lower prices on local food and street vendors, but fewer English speakers. If you work in District 1 or District 3, this location is convenient. Public transport access isn't ideal here, so a motorbike or regular taxi rides will be necessary for most commutes. That said, the neighborhood is safe, walkable for daily errands, and gives you an authentic HCMC residential feel without the tourist zone markup.
For expats wanting apartments for rent in District 3, this price range is rare. If you're flexible on space and prioritize location over square meters, it's worth a viewing.
Good to know
The minimum lease is 12 months. Monthly payment is $400 USD (approximately 10,000,000 VND at current rates, though the landlord may invoice in either currency). Electricity is metered and billed separately. Pet policy and guest rules should be confirmed during your viewing, as landlords in older District 3 buildings sometimes have restrictions.
