Selayang sits just north of Kuala Lumpur, between Kepong, Batu Caves and Gombak. It is known for Hospital Selayang, the Selayang wholesale market and nearby Batu Caves, with established neighbourhoods such as Bandar Baru Selayang, Taman Sri Gombak and Selayang Heights. Prices are well below central KL while rail links are good, so it suits hospital staff, market traders and families who work in the city.
