Balanga: Bataan’s education center
The province of Bataan sits west of Central Luzon, guarding the entrances to both Manila Bay and Subic Bay, at the confluence where each becomes the West Philippines Sea. The province is nestled within the country’s growth triad corridor, comprising the Subic Special Economic and Freeport Zone, Clark Freeport and Special Economic Zone, and Metro Manila. It has therefore become a critical industrial zone boasting anchor industries, two freeport zones, and several manufacturing zones.
The City of Balanga, situated along eastern Bataan, is bordered by the municipality
of Abucay in the north, Pilar to the south, and the municipalities of Bagac and Morong in the west. It is the center for trade and services in Bataan, with businesses mostly
in wholesale and retail, construction, finance, tourism, and manufacturing.
Balanga is also dubbed the “Education Center of the Province,” owing to a large number of learning institutions, including a state university. The city is working towards its vision of becoming a “Smart University Town” by 2030 and a center for global technology businesses by focusing on ICT and AI courses. As such, Balanga is fast becoming a “highly livable family-oriented city with a strong learning atmosphere that will ensure sustainable development and participatory governance.”
A premier eco-estate
Conceived as the foremost green estate in the country, Verida in Balanga, Bataan, draws inspiration from Singapore, known globally as a “City in a Garden,” boasting nearly
50 percent green cover and more than 72 hectares of rooftop gardens and green walls.
From the Spanish words verde, green, and vida, life, Verida captures the essence of the integrated estate. Spanning 50 hectares, it is designed around three key sustainability-driven nodes: verdant spaces for renewable energy and eco-tourism; socio-cultural hubs celebrating local community; and a smart, connected microcity powered by technology and innovation. Verida’s architecture seamlessly integrates the environment through green walls, roof gardens, and landscaped spaces woven into buildings
and roadways.
The estate is zoned into eight distinct districts, each surrounded by greenery.
These include business and retail centers, a tourism district and cultural plaza, medical facilities, a technology hub, and vertical residences. Designed for accessibility and efficiency, the masterplan ensures residents enjoy convenience while experiencing
an atmosphere of openness, cleanliness, and tranquility.
and renewable energy advocacies.
Accessibility further enhances the appeal of Verida. Linked by the North Luzon Expressway (NLEX), the Subic-Clark-Tarlac Expressway (SCTEX), and the Bataan Provincial Highway, it is within easy reach of Central and Western Luzon.
Reaching it is a breeze, but once you get there, you may never want to leave.
