Desa Petaling area guide

About Desa Petaling

Desa Petaling lies between Salak South and Bandar Tasik Selatan, east of the Sungai Besi Expressway. Kampung Malaysia, a small village on non-Malay reserve land, sits between it and Bandar Tasik Selatan.

The seat line runs through here. The Desa Petaling polling district is in the Bukit Bintang seat (P.120), while the next-door Kampung Malaysia district, which votes at SMK Desa Petaling, is in Bandar Tun Razak (P.124). Wikipedia's Desa Petaling page places the township in Bandar Tun Razak, so treat it as split between the two.

Household income

DOSM publishes income by seat, not by township. The median household earned RM 10,966 a month in 2024 in the Bukit Bintang seat and RM 9,360 in the Bandar Tun Razak seat. The Kuala Lumpur median was RM 10,802.

House prices per square foot

Only the flats had enough NAPIC sales for a median in the 3 buildings we matched: RM 130,000, or RM 216 psf, in 2024 from 13 sales. Condominium sales were too few to show a median.

NAPIC counts all of Kuala Lumpur as one district, so these are the sales in the 3 buildings of this area that we matched by name in NAPIC Open Sales Data (JPPH). psf = price ÷ floor area of the unit. Under 10 sales shows "Too few sales". Recent months are not complete yet.
