USJ 14, Usj 8, Usj 7 and the factories lot behind it are all on lower land compared with Taipan, usj 9, 13, 17, 18 and 11. After this the land slope back down in usj12, usj 4 and usj 3 before reaching the Kesas highway.
When you drive into Taipan, especially to the McD area from Foo Hing dim sum, you notice it's going up a bit of slope. All the way until you reach Rhb bank just before a T junction. Haven't see this area flood in the last 20 years.
Similarly, when you look at the Mosque in USJ 9, fronting Persiaran Kewajipan, you will notice the shops next to the mosque is higher than the road. These are tell tale sign that the opposite end are on lower ground thus will flood first when heavy rain. Which was what happened in 2019 and Persiaran Mulia, USJ 8, 14 and the factories was flooded but USJ 6, 9, 11, 13, 16, 17, 18 was relatively unaffected or only minor flooding. The factories in USJ 1 and the surrounding experience flooding during last year end massive flood.
Similarly, when you choose a subsale house, you need to check the entire stretch it is located. See if both corner house at each end are located on the same ground level.
Hope this helps.
I tot both corner hse on same road wont be at same level is 1 will be higher than d other?
