Most buyers of Setia Tropika have appraised the modern house design by the developer into JB. Indeed, the house design features modern cutting edge even compared to houses in Selangor. This is reflected into good sales at every launch. However, Setia Tropika is not a gated and guarded enclave. The security feature by the developer is only for the first 2 years, and after that, it is up to the residents. However, the area is gated – which makes thing easy for the residents if they decide to the gated and guarded scheme.
