Equally known for the famous river as it is for the city, Pasig is one of the best residential locations in Metro Manila. Considering that it was established as one of the initial municipalities in the country in 1572, the city is one of the oldest ones in the Philippines. By 1901, Pasig was then incorporated in the province of Rizal and became the provincial capital up until 1975. Through the Presidential Decree No. 824 passed in 1975, the province became part of Metro Manila, and was then converted into a city by the year 1994. With its vibrant history of being a rural residential area to a rapidly growing commercial center, it is easy to see why Pasig City holds so much potential.
Today, living in Pasig connotes an understanding of the two contrasting sides of the city: the busy and early morning rush as crowds of people descend to their workplaces, as well as the tranquility of late nights when these same people make their way through the city’s brightly lit streets en route to their homes. The stark contrast between its daytime and nocturnal lifestyles is one of the more interesting aspects of life in Pasig City. It is essentially the epitome of the work-play balance, which so many individuals look for. This makes it one of the premier metropolitans in Metro Manila.
For this reason, the city has attracted not only investors and businessmen, but also many families, young professionals, and expatriates. With its convenience and completeness, living in a Pasig condo or apartment ensures them a lifestyle unlike any other.
