Rawang: Condos, Apartments and Area Guide

Rawang was one of the first tin mining areas in Selangor. In 1894 the first electric generator in British Malaya was installed here for the mines. Malaya's first cement plant opened at Rawang in 1953. Rawang was the capital of Gombak district until 1997.

Since the North-South Expressway opened in the 1990s, Rawang has grown into a ring of townships: Bandar Country Homes, Bandar Tasik Puteri, Kota Emerald, Anggun Rawang and the newer Gamuda Gardens. The town is run by the Selayang Municipal Council (MPS).

The northern part of greater Rawang, including Bukit Sentosa and Bukit Beruntung, is in Hulu Selangor district, not Gombak. A few of our Rawang pages are in those areas.

Most of Rawang town, including Bandar Country Homes, Bandar Tasik Puteri and Kota Emerald, is in the Selayang seat (P.097). The Bukit Sentosa side is in Hulu Selangor. DOSM gives income for the whole seat, not for the town. The median household in the Selayang seat earned RM 9,930 a month in 2024, up from RM 8,626 in 2022, against a Selangor median of RM 10,726. The seat had about 382,400 people in 2024.

In NAPIC sales in the 7 Rawang buildings we matched, a condominium or apartment sold for a median of RM 285 psf in 2024, and a flat for RM 235 psf. That is below the Gombak district figure of RM 328 psf for all high-rise sales that year. There were too few matched sales in 2025 to give a reliable median.
