Based on its coordinates (approximately 7.29° south latitude and 111.66° east longitude), it is situated in the inner, north-central part of Java island. Administratively, the settlement belongs to Jawa Timur (East Java) province, whose capital is Surabaya. Direct, settlement-level statistical or encyclopedic sources regarding Malingmati are not available in the materials at hand; therefore, the characterization below is based on the broader regional context—at the district, regency, and provincial levels—with this being clearly indicated in all cases.
General overview
Malingmati is not among Indonesia's or East Java's known settlements of particular tourist or economic significance; it does not appear in independent entries in available sources. The villages belonging to Kecamatan Tambakrejo are typically rural, agricultural communities located in the north-central part of Kabupaten Bojonegoro. Bojonegoro regency itself is known primarily as an agrarian area, where rice cultivation and other cereal crops, as well as the oil extraction industry, play a role in the local economy. Tambakrejo district is located in a zone near the watershed of the Bengawan Solo river, which makes the region agriculturally valuable but periodically subject to flood risk. Malingmati itself is presumably a small community subsisting primarily on agriculture, though concrete data on this is not available from the sources at hand. In East Java province overall, approximately 42 million people live (according to 2024 data, 41,919,906 inhabitants), and the province is Indonesia's second most populous; however, the population density and level of development differ significantly between coastal cities and small rural villages in inner districts like Malingmati.
Real estate and investment
Settlement-level real estate market data specific to Malingmati is not available in the sources at hand. Considering the broader context, it can be said that the real estate market in Kabupaten Bojonegoro reflects local economic conditions: in rural, agricultural areas, real estate prices and rental rates are typically considerably lower than in the agglomerations of Surabaya or other major Javanese cities. East Java province as a whole functions as an important industrial and financial hub—contributing approximately 15 percent to Indonesian GDP—yet this activity is concentrated primarily in coastal cities and developed industrial zones, not necessarily in small inner villages. From an investment perspective, it is worth noting the general framework of Indonesian property ownership regulations: under current Indonesian law, foreign nationals cannot acquire full ownership rights (Hak Milik) over real estate in Indonesia; various time-limited legal titles (such as Hak Pakai, or use rights) are available to them, which can be exercised within the framework of applicable legislation. These regulations are in force across the country, including in East Java.
Safety and security
Concrete security statistics or relevant crime data specific to Malingmati are not found in available sources; therefore, only general observations regarding the broader region can be made. Rural, inner districts of East Java province—including the territory of Kabupaten Bojonegoro—are generally considered relatively peaceful areas with low crime rates based on general assessments of Indonesian public safety. Major security challenges are typically associated with urbanized, densely populated cities rather than smaller agricultural villages. However, for any concrete security assessment, it is advisable to consult local or current sources, as the general regional picture does not necessarily accurately reflect the actual situation of a specific small settlement.
Tourist attractions
No named tourist attractions are listed in available sources regarding Malingmati; therefore, the following information refers exclusively to the broader context of Kabupaten Bojonegoro. Within Bojonegoro regency's territory, a generally recognized natural and cultural point of interest is the Bengawan Solo river, which is Java's longest river, and whose water flow, floods, and the lifestyle associated with the river play a defining role in local culture. Oil extraction infrastructure occurring in the region, as well as the agricultural landscape, offer characteristic views, though these are primarily interpretable from an industrial tourism perspective. For those wishing to become familiar with the immediate surroundings of Malingmati, it is advisable to consult local sources or official kabupaten information regarding Kecamatan Tambakrejo's territory, as available encyclopedic materials do not contain details on this.
Summary
Malingmati is a small settlement in Kecamatan Tambakrejo, Kabupaten Bojonegoro, East Java, regarding which independent, detailed administrative or tourist documentation is not available in the examined sources. The character of the settlement and its economic and social conditions fit the rural, agricultural pattern generally characteristic of Bojonegoro regency. East Java province as a whole is an economically and demographically significant Indonesian province, yet this dynamism is primarily linked to larger cities. For those seeking more detailed, up-to-date information about Malingmati, local administrative bodies or official sources of Kabupaten Bojonegoro can provide reliable data.
