    I've been searching for months now about the best village to live in, here in the metropolis and I cannot decide whether to purchase a house in Bel-air or Dasmarinas Village. What do you think would be better in terms of security? What village is more organized and prestigious? Which of the two villages were flooded during Typhoon Ondoy? Thanks in advance!

    +1 That's BAV 3 (prime area). Average/Estimated lot price there is around P100k same as some lot prices in Dasmarinas.

    I'd choose Dasma over BAV though since the streets in Dasma are much wider and the cut of lots are bigger. Minimum around 600 sq meters I think. It has more exits too (EDSA, Pasong Tamo and McKinley). There's a school inside the village (CSA) and you only need to cross EDSA to get to Assumption.

    Surrounding area of Dasma is not as busy as BAV.

    This is the Hierarchy in Makati Villages:

    NORTH FORBES, specially Embassy and Billionaire Row, huge lot cuts
    SOUTH FORBES
    URDANETA, Big Lot Cuts
    DASMARINAS, smaller lot cuts but great location

    BELAIR near Rockwell
    SAN LORENZO
    BELAIR near Reposo
    and further-off Magallanes

    Sa Magallanes maraming for sale doon, kasi may portion diyan binaha noong bagyong Ondoy

    ^Meron waist deep, meron din almost chest deep. Pero sa ibang street walang kabaha baha. Magallanes kasi malapit sa Pasay and it's not that accessible compared to other villages. You have to cross EDSA or SLEX to get to Makati CBD pa.
