Living here is middling overall, weighed down by weak environment, facilities and space. The main thing to know is traffic noise from nearby Jalan Lagoon Selatan, worse on road-facing and lower floors.

What Bandar Sunway is like
Bandar Sunway, also called Sunway City, is a master-planned township of about 325 hectares of former tin-mining land in Subang Jaya, built up since the early 1990s by a single developer. Sunway Lagoon theme park, Sunway Pyramid mall, a resort hotel, Sunway University and Sunway Medical Centre sit beside offices, factories and housing, and about 200,000 people are said to live here, most of them staying local.

Students set the rental market. Sunway University, with about 25,000 students, and Monash University Malaysia fill the high-rise stock, alongside a large young working-adult population, some lower-income households and foreign workers in the older blocks, and expatriates around South Quay, among them international school teachers, lecturers and medical professionals. Most sales are high-rise condominiums and apartments, 78% of transactions, with landed homes the rest.
It is built to be walked. A covered walkway runs from Sunway Pyramid to Sunway University, the new Sunway Square mall is linked to the university by canopy walk and the BRT, and the lakeside park at South Quay is reached by lifts from the mall. The 5.4 km BRT Sunway Line connects to the Kelana Jaya LRT and KTM lines. Cars are the problem: space for new roads is limited, Persiaran Kewajipan is heavily congested from early morning to evening, and a RM100 million-plus upgrade of its roundabout, with smart traffic lights and wider lanes, is under way.
Newer supply keeps arriving at the edges, such as PJS 8, where recent projects sell for RM800 to RM950 psf, and at Sunway Square, a RM1.8 billion mixed development whose mall is now open.
