FIRE Number for Da Nang, Vietnam

A modern 1-bedroom apartment near My Khe Beach or a small house in a local neighborhood. Eating mostly street food — pho, banh mi, and com tam for a dollar or two per meal. Getting around by motorbike with Grab for longer trips. Basic private health insurance at Da Nang's expanding hospital network. The beach and the Marble Mountains are free. Comfortable and very affordable, though English is limited and the expat community is still small.

A large beachfront villa with private pool and ocean views. Dining at Da Nang's best restaurants regularly, with fresh seafood as a staple. A leased car or SUV for getting around, with domestic flights to Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City. Premium international health insurance with medical evacuation coverage. Golf at good courses nearby. This budget covers a genuinely affluent coastal lifestyle, though Da Nang's fine-dining and entertainment options are limited compared to larger Vietnamese cities.

A large beachfront estate with direct beach access, plus potentially a heritage property in Hoi An's old town. A housekeeper, a cook a few times a week, a gardener, a driver, and a property manager. First-class flights internationally and frequent domestic travel. Concierge global healthcare. This is far more budget than Da Nang can absorb — you live at the absolute top of what the area offers, but Da Nang is still a mid-size Vietnamese city with limited luxury dining, entertainment, and medical options. The beach and natural setting are the real draw.
