During the period 2010-2017, the number of poor households in District 6 fluctuated a lot, mainly due to changes in the poverty classification standards in each period, but in general, the number of poor households in this period in the district tended to decrease.
The poverty situation in District 6 has improved significantly thanks to poverty reduction policies. In 2016, the Social Policy Bank Transaction Office provided loans to 369 households in the area with a loan capital of 8,528 million VND.

2.3.2. Food and nutrition
District 6 always focuses on ensuring food security in the area. The development of many commercial stores specializing in food, planning concentrated markets under the management of authorities at all levels as well as effectively maintaining price-stabilized food stores helps to meet the food consumption needs of the people, thereby significantly improving the food and nutrition regime.
Figure 2.3. Rate of malnourished children in District 6, 2010–2017
(Source: District 6 Statistical Yearbook 2010–2017)
During the period 2010–2017, the rate of malnourished children under 5 years old in District 6 fluctuated at 0.58–1.95% (highest in 2010 and lowest in 2014). In 2017, the rate of malnourished children under 5 years old was 1.2%, lower than the city average of 1.8% and the national average of 6.2%. This shows that the process of nutritional health care for children under 5 years old in District 6 has produced positive figures. However, in terms of the change in the rate of malnourished children, the period 2014–2017 witnessed an increase in this rate. This is not a positive sign in health care and raises many issues requiring the improvement of health care quality, ensuring the learning, education and capacity development of children.
It can be seen that the food and nutrition issues of District 6 have very specific characteristics of a locality that does not produce much agriculture. However, thanks to maintaining production, planning, and good orientation, the food security situation in the district has had good results, people have access to many types of delicious, clean food, no cases of mass food poisoning have been recorded during this period, ... However, meeting the nutritional needs of the entire population is still limited, leading to the existence of more than 1% of children under 5 years old being malnourished, this is an issue that needs attention and focus to change for the comprehensive physical development of children in particular and the residents of the District in general.
2.3.3. Education
Education is considered a leading foundation in developing and improving the economic life and quality of life of the people. Education is a criterion reflecting the quality of life of the population.

- The budget expenditure for education in 2016 of District 6 was 259,168 billion VND, accounting for 30.17% of the total budget expenditure of the entire District.
