East Jakarta is shedding its purely industrial image to become a primary residential contender, bolstered by the expansion of the LRT and new Transit-Oriented Developments. While supply remains concentrated in specific clusters, the aggressive pricing—averaging just Rp11.8M/m²—offers a significant entry point compared to the saturated South Jakarta market.
