What is your preferred mode of transportation? Ideally, you will have your own car since it is safer and more convenient. The reality is cars can be expensive and will require you to shell out hundred thousands before you can own a car.
Motorcycle can be a good option but then again, although cheaper than car, it will require thousands of pesos as well. You can go for a bicycle since it is more affordable or you can try an electric scooter.
Electric scooters are distinct from the scooters you used during the 90s and 2000s. These scooters are unmotorized, which means you need your feet to be able to move.
Electric scooters comes with a battery, electronics, larger and air-filled tires, and an electric motor. Although electric scooters are designed in a way where riders stand on deck, some manufacturers offer seats for additional price.
