Hoang Liet Ward, located in the southwest of Hoang Mai District, covers an area of 4.85 km2 and has a total population of over 92,000 people. Situated at the southern gateway to the capital, it serves as an important transportation hub for the city. |
The influx of people has made Hoang Liet the most densely populated ward in Hanoi. The ward has nearly 100 high-rise apartment buildings, with the highest concentration in the Linh Dam peninsula area. |
The area around Nuoc Ngam bus station and a section of Giai Phong road belongs to Hoang Liet ward. |
Due to the high volume of people passing through the southern area, major roads around the ward are frequently congested at any time of day. |
In addition, some of the most densely populated urban areas, such as the Linh Dam Peninsula New Urban Area, the Phap Van - Tu Hiep Urban Area, the Southwest Linh Dam Urban Area, and the North Linh Dam Urban Area, all belong to this ward. |
High-rise buildings are springing up everywhere, but in reality, there is a severe shortage of recreational areas for residents, especially children. Furthermore, the overcrowding and insufficient school places in Hoang Liet ward are frequently reported issues. |
There are very few parking spaces, or the underground parking garages of apartment buildings are insufficient, resulting in widespread car parking on many streets here. |
Motorcycle parking areas have also sprung up all over the sidewalks around large apartment buildings. Meanwhile, stalls and shops are set up, encroaching on public space and detracting from the urban aesthetics. |
The most prominent example is the HH Linh Dam apartment complex, which has approximately 10,000 apartments and more than 40,000 residents. |
With a high population density, elevator overcrowding is a frequent problem at the HH apartment building, especially during peak hours. Mr. Dang The Dat (a resident) said that he has to spend 30 minutes each day waiting for the elevator. "Although we know the area is crowded, the price of this apartment is affordable for middle-income families, so many people still choose to live here," Mr. Dat said. Mr. Dat also added that elevators in the HH Linh Dam apartment complex frequently malfunction and require maintenance. The small size of the elevators makes movement difficult for residents and causes long waits. |
During rush hour, the entrances to the apartment complexes around the area are often congested with vehicles. |
Food stalls spilled out onto the streets and sidewalks due to the huge demand. All the food stands were packed with customers. |
