Where In Bacolod Is Real Estate Growth Booming?

The hum of progress is unmistakable along the Bacolod-Silay Airport Access Road. As you drive through, you’re met with wide open roads, the scent of sugarcane fields on one side and glimpses of Mount Mandalagan on the other. There’s a shift in the landscape here—a feeling that this is the heart of something unfolding. This stretch is fast becoming the stage for Bacolod’s next urban transformation, and at its core stands Saludad Township: a landmark in Bacolod real estate growth.

A New Urban Axis

Saludad’s location tells a story of strategic intent. Situated at the midpoint between Bacolod-Silay Airport and the city proper, this 21-hectare township is built for access, mobility, and long-term relevance.

Residents enjoy:

  • Direct access to the Bacolod-Silay Airport Access Road
  • 15 minutes to the downtown core
  • Nearby connectivity to Silay and Talisay
  • Proximity to major retail, schools, and hospitals

This corridor has become more than a road; it’s a development spine—the new axis of Bacolod urban development.

As Bacolod’s population grows and more families seek new areas to settle, the airport road corridor provides the kind of balanced setting urban planners look for: not overly dense, but still connected. It has room to breathe, grow, and evolve with its surroundings. This is why it has become a magnet for new projects, both private and public. Instead of squeezing into the old core of the city, growth is spreading outward—northward—toward Barangay Bata and into Saludad.

The Power of Master Planning

Saludad is a mixed-use community in the Philippines designed with layers: residential, commercial, institutional, and civic zones integrated into one coherent whole. Unlike piecemeal developments that respond to the city only after it grows, Saludad has been established with growth in mind.

This forward-thinking planning answers a growing question: “What is township living?” It’s about scale, structure, and support. It’s about having a place that matures alongside the people who live there.

In Saludad, the vision includes a university campus, a hotel, a civic plaza, and commercial spaces that create employment and access to everyday needs. This is crucial for a city like Bacolod, which is expanding not just in population but also in lifestyle expectations. Township living allows for the creation of self-sustaining zones where walking, cycling, and short drives replace long commutes. And with open parks and institutional zones planned from day one, families are assured of a complete, growing community—not just a cluster of homes.

Likha Estates: A Rare Residential Opening

Inside the township, Likha Estates Saludad by PHINMA Properties offers families the opportunity to secure a lot for sale in Bacolod City within a township that’s still taking shape. This gated, low-density enclave is the township’s first residential village—an address designed for those who want a meaningful home base in a location designed to grow.

The lots here are spacious, the roads wide and tree-lined, and the layout purposeful. Future plans for parks, retail, and institutions are just beyond the gate, giving homeowners a natural extension of community outside their doorstep.

In the conversation about future developments in Bacolod City, Likha Estates isn’t waiting to catch up. It’s already positioned where the growth is headed.

As PHINMA Properties’ flagship residential offering in the region, Likha Estates reflects a thoughtful blend of function and aspiration. Buyers are not simply choosing a piece of land—they’re choosing a well-placed, well-supported environment. As more township components unfold, property values are expected to appreciate, but perhaps more importantly, the livability and prestige of the address will become even clearer. For many Bacolodnons coming home or professionals looking to upgrade their lifestyle, this enclave offers the perfect balance of exclusivity, access, and potential.

Saludad’s Role in Bacolod’s Urban Strategy

This township is aligned with Bacolod’s shifting development zones. Growth is moving northward, branching toward Silay and Talisay, and drawing investment away from the crowded city core. With increased road access, commercial interest, and public-private partnerships, this area is turning into a Bacolod real estate focal point.

The potential here also responds to national questions: “Is Bacolod City poised to become a super city?” If the hallmarks of a super city are accessible infrastructure, regional integration, and livable spaces, then Saludad delivers the prototype. It marks the difference between expansion and evolution.

This positioning is strategic on multiple levels. First, it helps ease the burden on Bacolod’s congested central districts. Second, it forms part of a tri-city growth triangle that links Silay (with its airport and heritage sites), Talisay (with its educational and residential growth), and Bacolod itself. And third, it signals to investors, developers, and families alike that this is where new life is being built—with room for commerce, creativity, and community.

These advantages aren’t theoretical. They’re visible in traffic maps, in planned road widening projects, and in the way Saludad connects the dots between where people live, work, and grow.

Day-to-day life in this corridor is markedly easier. You can do groceries in less time, make it to meetings without stressing over city bottlenecks, and still catch the sunset with your kids from a neighborhood park.
