As the cost of living in Metro Manila continues to rise and urban congestion reaches an all-time high, more and more millennials are choosing to settle outside the metro to start their families. They’re in search of greener pastures – literally and figuratively – where they can enjoy a better quality of life while still having access to essential establishments. If you’re planning to build your future away from the hustle and bustle of city life, Puerto Princesa, Palawan, might just be your dream destination. And with La Marchea offering a sustainable, farm-to-table lifestyle, the decision to move is even easier.
Why Millennials Are Leaving Metro Manila
Millennials are known for prioritizing experiences over material possessions, and that extends to how they choose their homes. Many young professionals and new parents are moving away from Metro Manila because they want:
- Affordable yet high-quality living – Metro Manila’s real estate prices are skyrocketing, making homeownership almost impossible for many young families.
- Less traffic and pollution – The daily grind of endless traffic and poor air quality takes a toll on one’s health and well-being.
- More space for family life – Raising children in a crowded and noisy environment isn’t ideal. Millennials crave wide-open spaces where their kids can safely play and grow.
- Sustainability and a connection to nature – Many millennials are environmentally conscious and want to live in communities that promote green living and sustainability.

Puerto Princesa: The Perfect Place to Raise a Family
Puerto Princesa, the capital of Palawan, offers the best of both worlds: a peaceful, nature-filled environment combined with modern conveniences. It’s a city that embraces sustainable living while still providing access to essential establishments like schools, hospitals, malls, and even an international airport.
Here’s why Puerto Princesa is an excellent choice for millennials planning to start or grow their families:
- A Healthier Lifestyle – With its clean air, lush greenery, and proximity to the ocean, Puerto Princesa promotes a healthier lifestyle. Your kids can grow up breathing fresh air, playing outside, and enjoying nature instead of being glued to screens all day.
