Thủ Dầu Một has seen a rapid expansion and economic development since 1997, as the province has become an important industrial hub of the region. In January 2007, this town was officially recognized a third class town, which means it has met city status of Vietnam and will become a city in 2007. There is a 4200-ha urban-tech park under development here. Once completed, Thủ Dầu Một will become a modern city in the Hồ Chí Minh City Metropolitan Area (including: Hồ Chí Minh City as a core, Nhon Trach City, Thủ Dầu Một, Tan An City, Biên Hòa City and some urbanized rural counties of Đồng Nai Province and Bình Dương Province).
