Purpose: This study is undertaken in order to re-examine the impact of social indicators on the citizens’ social welfare of four regions, including Can Tho, An Giang, Tien Giang, and Dong Thap, as well as clarify the role of road network transportation in relation to the influence on social welfare. Research design, data, and methodology: The research applied the panel data with 400 residents living in four provinces involving Can Tho, An Giang, Tien Giang, and Dong Thap over the period 2020 – 2022, among which the study employs the REM, FEM, and POLS approaches. Results: Firstly, road network connectivity positively affects the total income, total expenditure, and nonfarm income, while there is no statistical link between road network and working hours. Secondly, cultivated annual areas have a positive relationship with the total expenditure of households and a negative relationship with total income. Thirdly, there is no statistical evidence to conclude that Perennial areas, Forest areas, Water surface areas, Education, and Labor members influence total income, total expenditure, nonfarm income, and working hours. Conclusions: The policy implications should concentrate on improving the road network connectivity among provinces to widen the opportunity to approach more potential commercial markets as well as limit the cost of transportation for households.
