Signature Rockwell lifestyle set to gain appeal among Bulakenyos
Rockwell is developing an expansive 110-hectare property in the City of San Jose del Monte. The rise of Bulacan province as a new economic powerhouse is well founded.Situated in the immediate north of Metro Manila, the so-called “Gateway to the North” has been seeing remarkable progress in recent years, owing partly to the spillover growth from the capital region and the aggressive infrastructure buildup in Central Luzon.
Expanding economy
Today, Bulacan is well on the radar of more local and foreign investors, drawn primarily to its expanding economy.
Data from the Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA) showed that in 2022, Bulacan accounted for the biggest share of Central Luzon’s P2.19 trillion economy at nearly 28 percent. During this period, it posted a 9.8 percent economic growth, driven primarily by the industrial (which includes activities like manufacturing and construction) and services sectors. It’s worth noting that Bulacan made the most significant contributions to the region’s total value of industry and services, with shares of 32.7 percent and 26.9 percent, respectively.
Additionally, it has also been seeing a boom in commercial activities with more malls, retail centers, and restaurants, among others, opening in the province over the last decade.
Fueling the growth Several factors are fueling this growth. Promising infrastructure developments, a favorable investment climate, a strategic location, and a highly skilled workforce are all contributing to Bulacan’s rising appeal as a prime investment destination.
Known as “Cradle of the Nation’s Noble Heroes”, Bulacan is accessible to major airports including the Ninoy Aquino International Airport, Clark International Airport, and the upcoming New Manila International Airport in the municipality of Bulakan. It also connects conveniently to major seaports such as Subic Seaport, Port of Manila, and Dingalan Seaport.
What’s even more promising are two big-ticket projects that will offer a convenient link between Metro Manila and Bulacan: the 22.8-kilometer MRT-7, which will include a station in the City of San Jose del Monte, and the Malolos-Clark Railway, part of the 163-kilometer North-South Commuter Railway (NSCR) that will run from New Clark City to Calamba City in Laguna. The NSCR will replace the existing street level, single-track PNR.
Moreover, Bulacan’s investor-friendly environment offers fiscal perks, making it an attractive option for those seeking new opportunities in the region.
Progress across province
As Bulacan continues to expand and modernize, it is no doubt poised to become a key player in the national economy, offering a wealth of investment prospects in a thriving business landscape. This potential is already evident in many of its cities and towns, each of which has been developing its own unique character and economic strengths.
Areas like San Jose del Monte, Marilao, and Malolos, for example, have been seeing continued modernization and progress, becoming focal points of development within the province.
San Jose del Monte, in particular, has seen a notable increase in registered businesses. Last year, it recorded 1,552 new business registrations and 6,224 renewals, according to government data. This first class component city was also named as the Most Sustainable and Livable City for 2022 and 2023 at the Nation Builders and MOSLIV Awards.
Gaining appeal
This is perhaps why San Jose del Monte has been attracting migrants and property developers.
Highly accessible from Metro Manila, San Jose del Monte also hosts well-regarded educational institutions such as Colegio San Agustin- Bulacan, making the city even more conducive to raising families. It’s worth noting, too, that San Jose del Monte’s natural elevation of about 150 meters makes it unlikely to be flooded during the rainy season.
Besides offering a prime location amid natural settings, San Jose del Monte presents the added benefit of anticipated property value appreciation as the province continues its upward trajectory.
The residential market here has undoubtedly been gaining significant appeal over the years, with developers like Rockwell Land, homebuyers and investors recognizing its potential.
Signature Rockwell lifestyle
Keen to seize the rising opportunities in Bulacan, Rockwell is investing significantly in San Jose del Monte with a new project designed to tap into the area’s continuing growth.
Rockwell is developing an expansive 110-hectare property in the city, where it is poised to meet the rising demand for upscale living spaces. It will bring to Bulacan the signature Rockwell lifestyle of elegance, sophistication, convenience, and security, similar to its developments elsewhere in the country.
Bulakenyos can thus expect lush green spaces, premium amenities, high end offerings, and curated experiences in a vibrant, thoughtfully designed community that will aptly reflect Rockwell’s confidence in the City of San Jose del Monte. This up and coming development will surely become the newest landmark in Bulacan, offering a new level of luxury that will attract residents and investors alike.
Indeed, Rockwell is creating a community that embodies the promise of Bulacan. As San Jose del Monte continues to rise, so does the opportunity for those eager to embrace the city’s continuing progress through a new development that offers Rockwell’s timeless signature lifestyle.
Bulacan is accessible to major airports including Clark International Airport and the upcoming New Manila International Airport. The Malolos-Clark Railway is part of the 163-kilometer North-South Commuter Railway that will run from New Clark City to Calamba City in Laguna. San Jose del Monte has been seeing continued modernization and progress.
