Makati searches usually split between CBD living near Ayala Avenue, Legazpi Village, Salcedo Village, and more residential or nightlife-oriented pockets around Poblacion and nearby barangays. The city is dense, walkable in parts, and highly dependent on the exact street you choose.
A unit close to Greenbelt or Glorietta serves a different lifestyle than one near Century City, Rockwell access points, or quieter streets farther from the office core. When comparing listings, weigh building age, association dues, parking, walkability, and whether your daily route crosses known bottlenecks.
