Analysis
Taman Century would be a perfect place to stay, especially for students of USM. The location from the university would definitely be something students would look out for. The amenities such as the bus terminal would also be beneficiary to residents.Bayan Lepas industrial zone and the Penang bridge would be the closest landmark to Taman Century. The availability of the Bayan Lepas highway makes it hassle free for residents to travel to both these places, and it takes less than 10-minute drive. Gurney Drive and Batu Ferringhi would be some distance away, both about 10km and 20km respectively. The area could be a little congested, especially during days when the night market is held, and also when event are held at the Pesta site. This is something residents are to look out for, besides the usual peak hour traffic congestion.
