Chenghua is aggressively pivoting from its industrial roots into a high-tech residential hub, led by massive redevelopment projects in the Erxianqiao and Longtansi corridors. While the average buy price of ¥19800/m² reflects a stabilizing market, the influx of premium 'Park City' developments is creating a supply-heavy environment that favors buyers over sellers. Our verdict: Chenghua is the best high-growth play in Chengdu for 2026, offering superior modern infrastructure compared to the aging city center.
