Pusat Bandar Puchong is a major mixed-use township in Puchong, Selangor. Developed as the civic and commercial centre of the rapidly growing town, it combines residential neighbourhoods, business districts, educational institutions and public transportation within a highly accessible urban environment. The township has grown significantly since the 1990s and today serves as one of the principal commercial and transportation hubs of Puchong. Together with Bandar Puchong Jaya and Bandar Puteri Puchong, Pusat Bandar Puchong forms one of the three principal urban centres that define modern Puchong.1
Pusat Bandar Puchong occupies a strategic location in the heart of Puchong, approximately 23 kilometres southwest of Dataran Merdeka in Kuala Lumpur. It is surrounded by Bandar Puchong Jaya, Bandar Puteri Puchong, Taman Wawasan and Bandar Kinrara, placing it at the centre of one of the Klang Valley's fastest-growing urban areas. Its central position has enabled the township to develop into an important commercial and transportation hub serving residents throughout Puchong.2
The township features a balanced mix of residential neighbourhoods, commercial precincts, educational institutions and recreational facilities. Wide roads, modern infrastructure and convenient access to public transport contribute to its reputation as one of the best-connected parts of Puchong.2
Pusat Bandar Puchong emerged during the rapid urban expansion of Puchong in the 1990s, when former plantation land was transformed into modern townships. It was planned as a central business and residential district that would complement neighbouring developments such as Bandar Puchong Jaya and Bandar Puteri Puchong. As Puchong's population increased, the township evolved into an important destination for commerce, education and public services.3
The opening of the Sri Petaling Line extension in 2016 further strengthened the township's role by providing direct rail access to Kuala Lumpur and other parts of the Klang Valley. Since then, continued commercial investment and residential development have reinforced Pusat Bandar Puchong's importance within the wider Puchong urban area.3
Although recognised primarily as a commercial centre, Pusat Bandar Puchong also contains established residential neighbourhoods comprising terrace houses, apartments, condominiums and mixed residential developments. Many residential areas are located within walking distance of neighbourhood shops, schools and public transport, making the township attractive to both families and working professionals.4
The township's mature infrastructure and convenient location continue to support steady residential demand. Newer high-rise developments have complemented the original housing areas while maintaining easy access to everyday amenities.4
Pusat Bandar Puchong contains one of the largest concentrations of commercial activities in Puchong. Its shop offices accommodate banks, restaurants, cafés, professional firms, retail outlets, medical clinics and a wide variety of service businesses. The commercial district serves not only residents of the township but also neighbouring communities across Puchong.5
One of the township's best-known landmarks is SetiaWalk, a mixed-use lifestyle development combining retail outlets, restaurants, offices, serviced apartments and landscaped public spaces. SetiaWalk has become a popular destination for dining, shopping and community events, further strengthening Pusat Bandar Puchong's position as one of the town's principal lifestyle centres.5
