The vast majority of homes in Manta are poorly constructed small houses. On the outskirts of the city are modern gated communities. On the coast west of the city center are several modern residential towers.
House prices in Manta are relatively high compared to the rest of the country. The limited supply of modern homes is the main cause. Wealthier residents mainly from Quito have investment properties in Manta.
