Because of its location, the district has earned itself a large population of commuters, and a high density of population,[4] compared to the other districts in the regency, with the district's northern part being a "planned community", complete with house complexes, parks, schools, and other facilities, all being designed and built by real estates.[5] Apart from that, the central and southern portions of the district are also packed with houses, although the southern part centres more on being an industrial area.
