This study seeks to better understand the dynamics of reform and the effects of uneven economic growth and development in Vietnam by going beyond the anecdotal evidence. Specifically, this study examines subnational data to identify regional variation in growth and development and to determine the magnitude of the disparity across regions. Statistics on migration also are reviewed to discern whether uneven growth is stimulating labor flows. In addition, this study addresses the question of the extent and effect of deterioration in rural health and education. Anecdotal information regarding this phenomenon has appeared in the press, but there has been little systematic examination of available data to assess both the effect and persistence of the deterioration trend.
