Taman Banang is only one of the many residential areas in Batu Pahat, amongst the many old and new housing developments. Despite being an extremely small town, traffic congestion can be a serious issue during peak hours, where the main roads are badly congested. One of the contributing factors to the terrible traffic could be the lack of public transportation.The neighbourhood of Taman Banang is a peaceful one, where peace and quiet are a given. Most of the occupants are family units, promising decent neighbours. The only issue that residents find to be a problem are the many "mat rempits" in the area, who race around illegally in the wee hours of the morning, hence, disturbing the residents.What was once a sleepy township in the past has now progressed into a very self sufficient and thriving town. Once considered to be a terrible investment, properties in Batu Pahat are now gradually gaining traction in the property market. New housing developments are up and coming, while old developments are increasing in price, including Taman Banang.
