Kampung Ban Liow Rent Prices in George Town 2026
Our Verdict
"The Grid"
With a median price of RM22.5/m², you are paying for a central postcode without the gloss of a high-rise. We've categorized this area as THE_GRID; it’s functional and strategically located for those working at the General Hospital or city center, but it offers zero frills. The investment outlook is flat because the stock is aged and the single data point suggests these units are tightly held or rarely refreshed.
The Vibe:It’s a gritty, old-school pocket of George Town where the street layout feels like an afterthought and the houses are packed tight. You are living in the shadow of the City Stadium and the heavy exhaust of Jalan Perak, trading modern aesthetics for raw proximity to the city's working core. It’s the kind of place where your neighbor knows exactly what you’re cooking for dinner because the windows are practically touching.
The median rent price in Kampung Ban Liow, George Town is RM22.5 per m² per month, 11% below the George Town city average of RM25.25/m². Based on 1 verified rental data points as of June 2026.

Locals Ask
Is parking an absolute nightmare?
Yes, if you don't have a private porch, you'll be navigating narrow lanes that weren't built for modern SUVs.
What are the m² stats for a typical unit?
The range sits between RM16 and RM29/m², but expect the lower end for houses that haven't been renovated since the 80s.
Why is there only one data point?
Kampung Ban Liow is a small, generational neighborhood where rentals are often handled via word-of-mouth rather than online listings.
Is it noisy during match days?
Being a stone's throw from the stadium means you'll hear every goal and whistle, so check the local football schedule.
Does the neighborhood analysis suggest a gentrification trap?
Hardly; the area is too dense and the infrastructure too aged for a sudden upscale shift anytime soon.
