Hmm. I think the topic here is about Goodview Height, the most is difference between Semenyih, Kajang, Sungai Long only right?
My opinion, the distance 10 mins, from Kajang if use saujana impian highway, can reach near to Cheras Sentral already (not considering traffic jam).
As an example, if from Kajang take 25 mins to reach KL, if traffic jam may up to 1 hour, and may consider far and jam staying in Kajang.
Then you shift to Semenyih, which further, addition 10 mins, traffic jam another 20 mins.
What my thinking is that, Kajang for me is the maximum acceptable distance from KL.
Still personal preference again, eventhough there are Lekas, but still...
Semenyih is a good investment or own stay ground, no doubt, there's a reason SP Setia, Ecoworld, Country Garden, MKH invest on those area. Because to north, like Rawang/Sg. buloh, or Setapak side, further that that there isn't any more suitable land for bigger development. Hence semenyih which are at north has bigger potential, due to its much empty land, which in future maybe another Petaling Jaya, but that would be at least 10yrs because previously is really just an old town.
Again, Semenyih is a good area, but not preferable for me due to distance.
If you can get anywhere nearer, why not?
There are retail shoplot in GoodView Height, if consider thats the only retail at that area where Goodview residents will depend on, I think retailer will have interest on doing business there. According to the quantities of housing lot (more than 500 units not including the apartment), actually its not little at all.
