What is the average cost of housing in Ho Chi Minh City?

"Rental costs are slightly lower than in my area of Australia and much lower than cities such as Sydney and Melbourne. Depending on the size and standard of apartment in HCMC, median apartment costs would be 400-800 USD a month in my area. I think they are slightly higher in District 1," mentioned another expat when asked about moving to Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam.
