Kuala Lumpur is a diverse city in various aspects, and each urban township or development area has its spark and culture. One thing’s for sure, living in a metropolis like Kuala Lumpur is always an adventure. So, here are the 5 reasons why expats choose to live in Bangsar South.

SPACIOUS UNITS

The properties in Bangsar South are mainly serviced apartments and condos that are fully or partially furnished and are much larger, in general. The neighbourhood is a mix between quiet and busy at different times of the day. Besides, the people in the area have an even distribution of Malay, Chinese and Indians. As for non-Malaysians, the numbers are quite low compared to other hot spots such as KL Sentral and Mont Kiara.

CONVENIENT ACCESS

Living in Bangsar South is convenient for both drivers and non-drivers. This is because the roads connecting to the area easily lead to other towns such as Kuala Lumpur City Centre, Bangsar, KL Eco City and many more. Not only that, but non-drivers will also find public transport easily accessible. There are buses and even LRT stations nearby such as the KL Gateway and Kerinchi station.

Just around the corner is a small mall called KL Gateway which has an anchor hypermarket brand and various food options. The mall also connects directly to KL Gateway LRT station. You can find some great coffee shops and bakeries within the mall. Thus, getting groceries, household items and food is never a hassle. Many locals and long-term tenants go to the city centre for work using the LRT because of its great transit hub. 

GATED & GUARDED COMMUNITIES

You can be assured of your safety and security as most of the properties in Bangsar South are usually gated and have security guards which limit easy access to your home.
