Yea, I am looking at these area too after the suggestion.. not in a hurry to buy a house, guess I might as well wait for the right opportunity to come along!

You can try and look around USJ 6.

I grew up here and am still living here with my family.

Overall pretty decent and there's LRT and BRT within walking distance which is a plus.

For me the only downside is the low cost flats near the LRT stations, you'll sometimes see kids running around the roads and endangering their own lives. So be careful driving if you're around the flat's vicinity.

But all in all a decent place.

everyone say location x3...USJ really a good location??why i dont think so...distance to KL (KLCC around 25KM)quite far isn't it?
if like tat why we dont choose far bit location like setia alam...at least newer..

You have to see it in a different perspective.

USJ might be slightly further to KL but it has a rather straightforward public transport system that can bring you there, should you not feel like driving.
Just take the LRT from the different stations around USJ and you'll reach KLCC in about an hour or even 45 minutes.

Secondly, it's pretty self sustaining with various colleges, restaurants and malls around. Even the neighboring places are also decent (Sunway, PJ, Shah Alam).

All in all, USJ may not be the perfect place but compared to Setia Alam. I would much rather stay in USJ as the neighborhood itself is matured, traffic is not as bad as Setia Alam and demographic of the people are decent.

Iagree location is not really ideal for those working in city centre.

Subang is just an established township that one can survive without venturing out.

It's better than setia alam due to presence of LRT, KTM, BRT. That's all.
*
Ya, I do agree that it's not that ideal for people that are working in KL. Hence, why I would want to move to a new neighborhood in the near future.

If its okay, do you have any input for Taman Melawati or Bandar Sri Damansara?

I'm just looking at these two townships as even though Subang and USJ is a nice place to live but the time spent on travelling is just too much.

can give example? from usj to KL..?aand the travel time...
*
I work in the heart of KL.

I normally leave my house at 6:45am and reach around 7:30am, which is not bad but I have to leave before 7.

I get off work at 5pm and take Kesas back to USJ, this can vary between 45 mins (If I'm lucky) to 1 hour and 30mins.

And Kesas can be quite unpredictable, some days it will be clear and sometimes the jam starts after the Sri Petaling toll.

Edit: But thankfully there is the LRT, so I can choose to take it sometimes when I don't feel like driving but the LRT takes me around 45 mins to an hour.

Boss,
Sometimes we only appreciate things after we have lost it.

On a good day, it takes me 1 hours to drive to work
On a bad day it takes me 2 hours and 30 minutes
And I don't have LRT or MRT options

Cheers

Yes, have to be grateful too.

Thanks for the reminder and hope you have a good day!

I'm staying in Subang, and find it to be a nice neighborhood. Cultural mix, no racial issue here. Yes distance to city centre is suboptimal, but I'm not working there so it doesn't affect me.

No idea with the 2 area you mentioned.
*
Yea, same with me I was born and raised here.

Overall a good place but I'm thinking of moving to a new place to explore around, and the two areas I mentioned have hilly surroundings which unfortunately Subang doesn't really have.

Semenyih/Broga is a nice place due to the surrounding hills and farms. Many eco resorts and retreats due to the fresh air. Only thing is no guarantee the hills will still be there in the future seing how the developments are encroaching into the hillsides.  Will be ideal if you do not have to go to KL or PJ areas on a regular basis.

Thanks for the feedback.

But I much prefer Seremban to Semenyih, something about Semenyih doesn't sit right with me lol

I'm eyeing more towards Melawati and Bandar Sri Damansara, as its still within Klang Valley and is somewhat closer to the city center

For the time being and the foreseeable future, I think my career prospects will revolve around KL; hard to find WFH prospects for my line of work

Hi, anyone can comment about USJ12? I saw the landed only selling around 600k 20x60.. what is bad about this area? Sorry that I’m not so familiar with Subang Jaya
*
USJ 12 is memang cheaper than others

If you want 600+k, you can also check out USJ 3 and USJ 6

USJ 11 and USJ 5 are generally more expensive

The PH gas explosion may have affected the asking price.

Property prices don't appreciate or depreciate without reasons.

The price has always being like that because of demand issues.

This inner roads are busy esp during peak hours due to its alternative route to the school and USJ 3 areas. When Persiaran Tujuan is jammed, more drivers tend to use the inner roads to beat the jam even though with the many speed barriers.

Another reason could be the layout factors. There are the 1.5 and 2 sty designs

And many msians don't like the idea of living near religious places, if there are choices.

With the recent ph gas fire, it added to the lists of cautious buyers.

If a buyer can live with those stated above, I would say is always landed over highrise for the price.

Thanks for the detailed explanation

Are you a resident of USJ too?
