Each year the Nhang celebrate their anticipated harvest in a festival called roong pooc . Every family owns land to plant rice, maize, sweet potatoes, cassava, gourds, and vegetables. They use buffaloes for plowing, horses as beasts of burden, and poultry for meat and sacrificial offerings. Communal, or shared land, is prominent in the Nhang society. Bamboo structures at the village entrance hold offerings of pig, buffalo ears, or chicken legs.
Families tend to be small.
Formerly, girls were sold into marriage and rites were complex. Today, young people are free to choose their own marriage partners. Education in Vietnam is free and state-controlled. The leading institution of higher learning is the Hanoi University. The Nhang, like most other minority groups in Vietnam, practice ethnic religions.
