Good news for those who are planning a trip to Vietnam as the country's two biggest cities, Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City, just slid into the top 10 cheapest cities in Southeast Asia for this year.
HCM City, the southern metropolis, took the 9th position and Hanoi secured the 7th spot, as shown in the Cost of Living Index 2018 conducted by Numero, the world's largest database of user-contributed data on cities and countries worldwide.
The index measures the cost of restaurants, house rental, groceries and purchasing power to come up with the average cost of living in each country. Aside from the two Vietnamese cities, other cities in the top ten are in the Philippines and Indonesia.
