3. City Planning Zone: Commercial (red — highest); Dense Residential (yellow — mid); Low-Density Residential; Agricultural (green — lowest)
4. Utilities access: Electricity and water supply access is critical; land without utilities requires additional investment and is priced lower

Price Trend: Chiang Mai land prices grow 5-15%/year in developing areas. Outer areas with improving roads and utilities typically see faster-than-average price growth.
