A First Tet in a Smart Social Housing Apartment
On the afternoon of the 24th day of the twelfth lunar month, the internal walkways of K-Home New City are lined with neatly placed pots of yellow apricot blossoms. Children ride their bikes around the courtyard, while adults tidy up their homes and hang festive lights. On many balconies, the Vietnamese national flag flutters gently in the breeze.
After years of renting, this is the first Tet where many workers and laborers here can fully experience the joy of stability, comfort, and true peace of mind.
Mr. Hung, a worker at VSIP 1, waters plants in front of his home, smiling as he recalls more than a decade of renting. Back then, every Tet came with worries—rent increases, moving from place to place, and constant uncertainty. “This year, having our own home… Tet just feels lighter,” he says.
Mr. Hoang Xuan Đong, a resident of the Bang Lang zone, shared: “In today’s tech-driven world, I’m used to using apps in my daily life. Having a dedicated resident app at K City makes communication between residents and the management team much more efficient.”
Nearby, Ms. Lan decorates her glass door with handwritten New Year wishes alongside her daughter. What she values most is simple: “I can finally sleep in peace.” The development offers 24/7 security, surveillance cameras, and a fully operational fire safety system—giving residents a sense of safety they had long been missing.
For many families, this first Tet is not just a change of address—it marks a transition from temporary living to stability, from constant worry to genuine peace of mind.
Life as Ms. Lan shared is just part in living experiences supported by technology in K-Home New City. The entire urban area is managed and operated by K-City, a professional team combining human expertise with advanced smart technologies.

Live with love and friendly neighbours.
K-Home New City is operated under a smart urban model managed by K-City.
Advanced technologies, including artificial intelligence (AI) solutions such as an “AI concierge” and Internet of Things (IoT) systems, are deployed to ensure comprehensive monitoring—from the fire protection control center to all on-site amenities. The ultimate goal is to deliver an elevated standard of living and complete peace of mind for residents.
In addition, the “AI concierge” and dedicated mobile resident app enable users to submit maintenance requests, provide service feedback, and schedule repairs with just a few simple taps.
Ms. Loc, a resident in Bang Lang zone, shares that in the past, even small issues like electrical or plumbing repairs meant searching for technicians and worrying about overcharging. Now, help arrives quickly through the app—saving time and offering peace of mind.
However, what residents appreciate most isn’t the technology—it’s the sense of community. Green parks, sports courts, BBQ areas, and pathways bring the neighborhood to life every afternoon. People exercise, children play football, and families gather for weekend meals.
These everyday moments transform a housing project into something more meaningful—a real community. Neighbors get to know others. Children grow up together. Adults share stories about work, family, and life in Tet.
The story of the first Tet at K-Home New City is more than just a milestone—it is a vivid reflection of a new-generation social housing model.
Here, technology is not used for show, but to genuinely serve people—creating a living environment that is modern, safe, and deeply human.
For many hardworking families, this marks a true new beginning—a “new spring” filled with hope for a stable, fulfilling, and sustainable life.
