Serpong

Serpong is an administrative district in South Tangerang that spans multiple neighborhoods including Ciater, Rawabuntu, and Rawa Mekar Jaya at an elevation of 49 meters above sea level. The region contains planned town developments that integrate residential areas with modern facilities throughout the landscape.

The district transformed from agricultural land into a residential zone following the expansion of Greater Jakarta's metropolitan region in recent decades. This rapid growth fundamentally changed the landscape and character of the area.

The area shows linguistic diversity with Betawi heard in most neighborhoods and Sundanese spoken along the Cisadane River communities. This language mix reflects the different backgrounds of people who have made the area their home.

The area connects well through the Jakarta-Serpong Toll Road and Serpong-Cinere Toll Road, giving residents direct access to central Jakarta. An extensive transportation network makes it easy to move around the region and reach other parts of the metropolitan area.

The area hosts multiple planned town developments designed as a response to Jakarta's rapid expansion and shaping modern urban planning in Indonesia. These planned communities show how developers worked to systematically structure residential and business spaces.
