Actually, the area where i consider to be the "center" is Bandar Utama/ Damansara Perdana/ Damansara Uptown as I stay very near there and all my social activities/friends/family are there. That's why Elmina is more attractive to me than Semenyih. I will still be going to the "center" after i stop work. If i have budget, i will buy in PJ area but now i think i will need at least 1 mil to 1.5 mil to get a landed freehold there (inclusive renovation costs). For new projects Elmina seems to be the best choice. However now wife having second thoughts...
BTW I hope i am not being offensive here but does anyone know what is the racial make up of Elmina Gardens residents? I know about the 50% bumi quota but since it is freehold, bumi buyers can sell to non-bumis so the racial make up can change...
I would say approx 70% bumi, at least.
near by Bukit Jelutong is near to 85%.
on the plan noise, I stay near to Monterez, yes occasionally the noise is there. but somehow got used to it and don't alarm anymore.
if concern about noise, the whole ara damansara/saujana would be affected as well.
anyway- I am looking for property as well.... each person center could be different eh.
my social activities would be Subang/ SS2/DJ/DU too.....
fortunate, or unfortunate... new landed house seems Elmina is the nearest.
other options would be Setia Alam, Rimbayu? Gamuda garden which is still a long distant away.
Elimina though it is nearer.... still have accessibility issue. DASH is there but only via Mutiara damansara to go home? that area is also know as jam-packed.
not to mentioned need to go subang perdana to enter dash.
further more it is still lack of commercial. will it bloom? we can be hopeful but making Denai Alam shoplots as example- is this a commercial square which you really like to go?
the nearby one is Subang Bestari/Subang Perdana - of which somehow it just run-down and the road and landscape is poorly maintained.
