Kajang has been coined "Satay Town" by tourists and locals due its reputation of producing exceptional satay. However, there is so much more to this town other than their must-eat skewered meat.

Kajang was founded in 1807 after the Klang War and became the district capital of Hulu Langat due to its central location. There are numerous theories on how the place was given its name. One of them is that there used to be an abundance of bamboo and palm leaves around the area, a fact that aligns with the Malay dictionary that defines ‘kajang’ as stuffed objects from leaves such as bamboo, palm leaves or mengkuang.

The population in Kajang has been steadily increasing because the houses in the outskirts area are more affordable compared to the city centre. The town hosts a number of shopping complexes including the Billion Shopping Center, Metro Point Complex, Union Square, and De Centrum Mall. It is also surrounded by plenty of other amenities such as healthcare, supermarkets, recreational parks and a variety of educational institutions. The lifestyle here could be described as a reprieve from the rush of the city whilst still having all the entertainment you need within the town.

Kajang is located 20 km southeast of downtown Kuala Lumpur, about a 30-minute drive away. Easily accessible by MRT, this area is riddled with hidden local gems to keep you sated with all kinds of good food.

It is connected to many major highways such as the Kajang Dispersal Link Expressway (SILK), Kajang–Seremban Highway (Lekas), Southern Klang Valley Expressway (SKVE) and the Cheras–Kajang Expressway (CKE).

The town is seeing more development as a growing number of developers are starting to recognise its potential. It is the perfect neighbourhood for families who seek easy access to the city centre along with an assortment of public activities.

Crime Rate

Crime Index is an estimation of overall level of crime in a given city or a country. We consider crime levels lower than 20 as very low, crime levels between 20 and 40 as being low, crime levels between 40 and 60 as being moderate, crime levels between 60 and 80 as being high and finally crime levels higher than 80 as being very high.

Safety index is, on the other way, quite opposite of crime index. If the city has a high safety index, it is considered very safe.

Consumer Price Index

The Consumer Price Index (CPI) line shows an increment in prices of essential goods on a yearly basis, while the Percentage Changes line shows the level of changes in price increments over the years. For example, a dip in the CPI line may indicate a low level of price increment as compared to the previous year while a surge in CPI line shows a high level of price increment as compared to the previous year.

The above graph shows 1.644% of price changes in essential goods such as rice, meat and tobacco between the years 2011 and 2012, while increasing in difference to 2.093% in 2013. Prices of essential goods then increasing to 3.448% in the year 2014 while surging by 2.523% in 2015.

While the prices of essential goods have shown a variation in the Percentage Changes, the Consumer Price Index (CPI) on the other hand indicates a reality of ever increasing prices in essential goods with increments between the years 2011 - 2015 at 102.7 in 2011, 105.1 in 2012, 107.3 in 2013, 111.0 in 2014, 113.8 in 2015.

This is a representation of Selangor Consumer Price Index (CPI) for the year of 2011 - 2015
