How it's scored: each area is rated 1–10 on eight factors — value, infrastructure & services, culture & heritage, quiet, transport access, rental depth, walkability and family suitability — and the BAANLYY Area Score is their average on a 0–100 scale. Uthai Thani publishes very little structured housing data and its entire advertised long-stay market is six buildings on a single portal, all of them in one district (see the rental market guide for exactly what we could and could not verify), so these scores are deliberately conservative and directional rather than precise. It's a transparent comparison starting point, not investment advice — weight the factors that matter to you.
Uthai Thani areas by overall score
| # | Area | Score | Value | Infrastructure & services | Transport access (road) | Rental depth | Family suitability |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Uthai Mai — the town and the Sakae Krang riverfront The whole town municipality in one subdistrict: the raft houses on the river, Khao Sakae Krang and its pavilion above, the provincial hall on Wongsarot Road, Uthai Thani Hospital, and every advertised rental in the province bar one | 69 | 8 | 7 | 6 | 4 | 6 |
| 2 | Nam Suem, Sakae Krang & Tha Sung — the eastern riverside The subdistricts immediately downstream of the town: Wat Tha Sung and its 100-metre mirrored vihara, the province's private hospital, and the last farmland before the Chao Phraya | 60 | 8 | 6 | 5 | 2 | 6 |
| 3 | Lan Sak & Huai Khot — the western uplands Where the plain climbs into limestone: Hup Pa Tat's collapsed sinkhole valley with its single narrow entrance, the Huai Thap Salao reservoir, and the last towns before the forest | 51 | 9 | 4 | 4 | 1 | 4 |
| 4 | Thap Than, Nong Chang, Sawang Arom & Nong Khayang — the farming districts The rice-and-cane plain north and west of the capital, four small district towns strung along the provincial roads with the cattle market the provincial motto is proud of | 51 | 9 | 4 | 5 | 1 | 5 |
| 5 | Ban Rai & the Huai Kha Khaeng edge The province's largest district and its approach to a UNESCO World Heritage wildlife sanctuary — Karen villages resettled out of the forest in 1976, and the community college that serves them | 49 | 9 | 3 | 3 | 1 | 4 |
