Section 4 is a residential area in the Petaling Jaya district. Petaling Jaya city was originally developed as a satellite township for Kuala Lumpur consisting of mostly residential and some industrial areas. The north eastern corner over at the junction of Jalan Templer and Jalan Selangor is given over to Assunta Hospital and 2 schools. However, Section 4 is still maintained as residential with supporting commercial facilities, including a wet market at the southwest corner. There are a number of religious buildings located in or around Section 4, some which includes the Emmanuel Baptist Church, the Masjid Jamik Sultan Abdul Aziz and a Hindu temple. Residents will also be happy to know that there are public transportation facilities sited in neighbouring areas including a bus terminal on Jalan Othman, the RapidKL of Taman Jaya and Asia Jaya as well as the KTM Seri Setia. For Muslims who require assistance or guidance, there is a branch of the Jabatan Agama Islam (JAIS) office located near the Petaling Jaya Old Town section, ensuring that any Muslim will be able to reach out to them easily. Educational institutions are quite in abundance around the Section 4 area, allowing parents some peace of mind regarding where their offspring will attend, such as the Assunta Primary School, Maktab Kerjasama Malaysia, SRJK Petaling in Section 3 as well as schools in Section 1 and Section 2. Directly to the west of Section 4 lies Section 51, the core industrial and business centre of Petaling Jaya, which provides much of the job opportunities.Bukit Gasing, one of the few remaining areas of secondary forest in Petaling Jaya which allows residents of Section 4 to absorb the breathtaking views over Kuala Lumpur and Klang Valley, is easily accessible via Jalan Othman or Jalan Templer. To the north, residents will be able to find Section 7 otherwise known as 'The State', and it is home to many of the MPPJ municipal buildings and a sizeable commercial district with an eclectic mix of restaurants and entertainment outlets. There are speedy direct links from Section 4 with the Federal Highway, whereby one will be able to easily access all other parts of Petaling Jaya and Kuala Lumpur, including Subang and Klang. Buses which run along the main thoroughfares of this modern suburb allows mobility for the residents who do not own their own mode of transport.

The shops are situated at various strategic locations such as SS2, Damansara Utama, Kelana Jaya, Damansara Jaya, Taman Megah, SS3, Section 14, SEA Park, PJ New Town and PJ Old Town. In addition, one is able to visit the night markets or "pasar malam" to try a variety of cheap local food. There is one in SS2, every Monday night and another one in section 17 every Tuesday night.Transportation for residents of Section 4 is also a breeze with public ones available such as through RapidKL and Putra LRT. The combination of Putraline and Putra LRT brought a relief to many Petaling Jaya residents especially those who had had to rely on public transportation. In the past, there were many mini-buses available but the demise of the mini-buses meant that the waiting time for buses was back to the 30 to 60 minutes regime.
