Kadubeureum – settlement in Kecamatan Pabuaran, Banten province
Kadubeureum is a small-sized settlement in Indonesia that belongs to the Kecamatan Pabuaran administrative district, as part of Kabupaten Serang (Serang regency), in Banten province, on the northwestern edge of Java island. Based on its coordinates (-6.2033138, 106.0552006), it is located near the Java Sea, within the Serang Raya metropolitan area. It is important to note that Kabupaten Serang is administratively separate from Kota Serang, which became independent in 2007, although both units form part of the broader Serang agglomeration. No independent, settlement-level statistical or encyclopedic sources are available for Kadubeureum; therefore, the following description relies on data available at the Kabupaten Serang level and generally known characteristics of the region.
General overview
Kadubeureum is a small village-like community that falls under the administration of Kecamatan Pabuaran. Kecamatan Pabuaran is one of the less urbanized internal areas of Kabupaten Serang, characterized primarily by agricultural land, rice fields, and smaller plantations, in contrast to the coastal zones or more industrialized areas of the regency closer to Serang city. In mid-2024, Kabupaten Serang had a population of 1,756,816, and the entire regency spans the northwestern corner of Java island, in proximity to Banten Bay. The administrative seat of the regency is, in legal terms, Kecamatan Ciruas. Since Kabupaten Serang is part of the Serang Raya metropolitan zone, the regency as a whole maintains strong economic and infrastructural connections with the broader development processes of the province and western Java island. Kadubeureum itself is likely a traditional, small-population rural community, whose daily life and economy are determined by agricultural activities, as is generally observed throughout the Pabuaran district.
Real estate and investment
No verifiable, settlement-level real estate market data is available for Kadubeureum. Considering the Kabupaten Serang as a whole, industrial and residential development has been observed in the broader region over the past decade, particularly near major transportation axes and the Serang urban agglomeration. The more rural, internal districts of the regency—to which Kecamatan Pabuaran belongs—are generally characterized by more moderate property turnover and lower land prices compared to coastal or city-adjacent zones. This circumstance may present a low entry threshold on one hand, while on the other hand liquidity and demand remain more limited. In Indonesia, real estate investment is generally affected by the legal framework governing foreign property acquisition: foreign nationals cannot, as a general rule, acquire full ownership rights (Hak Milik) to real estate, but are only eligible for longer-term rental or usufruct arrangements (such as Hak Pakai), whose terms may be subject to changes in legislation. Prior to any investment decision, it is advisable in all cases to consult with local legal counsel.
Safety and security
No verified, settlement-level statistics or public official data are available regarding public safety in Kadubeureum. With respect to rural districts in Kabupaten Serang and generally in Banten province, it can be said that in small villages, traditional community social control is strong, and serious violent crimes are rarer than in large cities. Nevertheless, in certain areas of Banten province, particularly in more urbanized zones, property crimes and traffic accidents present more common challenges. In the rural Pabuaran district, no publicly accessible, specific crime statistics are available from this perspective; generally applicable precautionary measures—such as planning for nighttime travel and careful handling of valuables—are valid throughout the region. For a more accurate situation assessment, consultation with the relevant local authorities (Polres Serang) is recommended.
Tourist attractions
No named tourist attractions are identified in verifiable sources in the immediate vicinity of Kadubeureum. Considering Kabupaten Serang as a whole, the regency is rich in historical and natural attractions that may be relevant to visitors to the region. Within the territory of the regency, ruins and mosques connected to the legacy of the former Banten Sultanate—such as the Masjid Agung Banten and the associated Keraton Surosowan ruins—count among the most significant attractions, although these are more closely associated with the northern coastal zone of the regency and the former city of Banten, rather than directly with the Kadubeureum area. In the Pabuaran district and its surroundings, the agricultural and landscape-like natural environment provides the main character. Before visiting any specific named attraction, it is advisable to review the most recent local guides and to assess distances in advance, as across the regency's extensive territory, there may be significant distances between individual attractions.
Summary
Kadubeureum is a rural-character, small-sized settlement in the Kecamatan Pabuaran district, within Kabupaten Serang territory, in Banten province, in northwestern Java. The available public data primarily refer to the regency level: in mid-2024, Kabupaten Serang counted nearly 1.76 million inhabitants and forms part of the Serang Raya metropolitan zone. Kadubeureum itself is more likely to be classified among the region's quieter, agricultural-character internal areas, rather than among zones of industrial or tourist prominence. Those requiring more precise and up-to-date information about the village should turn to local official sources or direct on-site inquiry.
