For those who want to live in a neighborhood where everything is accessible in Cebu City, then your first choice should be the community of Lahug. One of the biggest communities or “barangay” in Cebu City, Cebu, Lahug was once known as a sleepy little area where Cebu’s first domestic airport was once located until in 1967. It is also one of the oldest communities in the city. Today, a lot of people know where Lahug is because of its major shopping centers and the Cebu IT Park.
HISTORY
For those who want to live in a nice area where everything is accessible, then living in Lahug should be perfect for you. If you want to live in a quiet area, then you should live in Beverly Hills. Back in the 1950’s, Lahug was a quiet community filled with towering trees. It was then when a businessman built a classy residential district where he and a good number of upper class citizens built their homes on the gentle, rolling slopes of Lahug. He called the area “Beverly Hills” in honor of the actual Beverly Hills in the United States.
REAL ESTATE OFFER
For those who want to mingle with the crowd, there’s Cebu IT Park. The center of Cebu’s fast rising BPO industry, there are a good number of condominiums and apartments available for rent or for sale not just within the park itself, but outside as well. The best thing about living in IT Park is that it is one of the safest places to live in when in Cebu City.
LEISURE ACTIVITIES
There’s always a huge crowd of people walking all over the place because it is also where BPO employees are working. Cebu IT Park also has a lot of restaurants and convenience stores, so eating out and buying supplies won’t be a problem.
Since it’s situated right in the heart of Cebu City, Lahug is near the big shopping malls, like the Ayala Mall within Cebu Business Park in Gorordo and the SM City Cebu Mall in North Reclamation. You can just take a cab or a jeepney in Lahug and you’ll reach both malls within 20-30 minutes, an hour during the rush hour. Some of the tourist attractions in Lahug are the Taoist Temple and the Cebu City Zoo, which are both near Beverly Hills.
