# Sungai Andai Area Guide, Banjarmasin

One of North Banjarmasin's busiest housing corridors and a favourite for young families, though its wetland ground means you should look closely at landfill and drainage.

## About This Area

Sungai Andai is an urban village (kelurahan) in North Banjarmasin district that, over the past two decades, has grown into one of the city's largest housing pockets. Along Jalan Sungai Andai, estate after estate has appeared, from subsidised starter homes to two-storey commercial builds, making it a popular entry point for young families and first-time buyers.

The appeal is simple: prices still gentler than the city centre, yet well connected. Jalan Sungai Andai links to Jalan Brigjen H. Hasan Basri (Kayu Tangi) on one side and feeds toward Jalan A. Yani on the other, two of Banjarmasin's main arteries. Its closeness to the Kayu Tangi campuses also leads some owners to run their homes as boarding houses (kos) or rentals.

Bear in mind that nearly all of Sungai Andai sits on filled wetland. The quality of the landfill, a plot's height relative to the road, and the estate's drainage matter far more to long-term comfort than the look of the house. Some spots flooded during the major 2021 floods, so one estate's water history can differ sharply from its neighbour's, check on the ground, don't just trust the brochure.

## Price Trend

Type 36–45 houses in Sungai Andai estates typically run Rp250–500 million, while build-ready plots inside the estates sit around Rp2–4 million per square metre, edging up as new estates open (2025 market estimate, subject to change).

## Flood & Land

Filled wetland. Ponding is a real risk at low points, especially when high tide and rain coincide; the 2021 floods reached some estates. Favour plots higher than the road, ask about landfill height, and confirm the estate's drains actually flow the right way.

## Access & Location

In North Banjarmasin, connected to Jalan Brigjen H. Hasan Basri (Kayu Tangi) and Jalan A. Yani. Roughly 10–20 minutes to the city centre (Siring/Sudimampir) depending on traffic; main estate roads are paved, while some inner lanes are worth checking in the rainy season.

## Nearby Amenities

- Rows of shophouses & minimarkets on Jalan Sungai Andai

- Mosques & prayer rooms in each estate
