Petaling Jaya area guide

About Petaling Jaya

PJ was planned on the 1,200-acre Effingham rubber estate around Old Klang Road to take people from a crowded Kuala Lumpur. Building started in 1952 with 800 houses in what is now the Old Town. It was run as part of Kuala Lumpur until 1974, when KL became a Federal Territory and PJ stayed in Selangor. It got city status on 20 June 2006 and is run by the Petaling Jaya City Council (MBPJ).

The city is split into sections. The old part has numbered sections such as Section 14 and Section 17. The SS sections (from Sungai Way–Subang) include SS2 and Kelana Jaya (SS3 to SS7). The PJU areas in the north are known as Damansara, with Damansara Jaya, Bandar Utama and Mutiara Damansara. On condo.com.my, Tropicana and Kayu Ara are also in this town page.

Household income

PJ is split between two parliament seats. The south and centre, Sections 1 to 19, Section 51, SS5 to SS7 and the PJS areas around Taman Medan, are in the Petaling Jaya seat (P.105). Its median household earned RM 10,993 a month in 2024 (DOSM). The north, SS2, Sections 20 to 22, SS3, SS4, Damansara Jaya, Bandar Utama and Kayu Ara, is in the Damansara seat (P.106), with a median of RM 10,608.

Both are above the Petaling district median of RM 10,688. The Petaling Jaya seat had about 381,400 people in 2024 and the Damansara seat 493,600. These are whole-seat figures, so a single street can be well above or below them.

New projects selling their first units can pull a year up. psf = price ÷ floor area of the unit. Under 10 sales shows "Too few sales". Recent months are not complete yet.
