Karangreja – a village in Suranenggala District, Kabupaten Cirebon
Karangreja is a small settlement in Kabupaten Cirebon, which belongs to Suranenggala kecamatan (district) in West Java (Jawa Barat) province, Indonesia. Based on its coordinates (6.63° south latitude, 108.53° east longitude), the settlement is located near the northern coastal area of Java Island. The administrative headquarters of Kabupaten Cirebon is situated in Kecamatan Sumber. Direct, settlement-level sources are currently not available for Karangreja, therefore the location is presented below based on the broader context of the regency and province.
General overview
Karangreja is a small village belonging to Suranenggala kecamatan, located in the northwestern part of Kabupaten Cirebon. Kabupaten Cirebon – into which the settlement is administratively classified – is situated in the northeastern corner of West Java province and has traditionally been regarded as the meeting point between the eastern and western halves of Java Island: according to the regency's description, this area is "West Java province's gateway to the eastern regions of Java Island." This transit character defines the economic and social character of the surrounding area. Suranenggala kecamatan typically consists of rural communities engaged in agriculture and fishing activities, as the northern coastal strip of Kabupaten Cirebon is characterized by extensive rice-growing areas and fishing villages. Karangreja itself is relatively unknown to the broader public and lacks any prominent tourism or industrial profile for which widely documented data would be available. Like other small villages in the region, it is likely characterized by a way of life organized around agriculture and local daily supply, though only the general regency-level characterization can be reliably applied to these matters.
Real estate and investment
Specific, settlement-level real estate market data concerning Karangreja does not appear in the available sources. At the broader Kabupaten Cirebon level, however, it can be observed that the regency's favorable transportation and transit situation – on the border between West Java and Central Java, along the Jakarta–Surabaya axis – maintains moderate real estate market interest. Property prices in rural, agricultural areas of West Java are generally substantially lower than price levels in major cities and tourism zones. For foreign investors, it is important to note that under the current Indonesian land laws (Undang-Undang Pokok Agraria), foreign private individuals cannot hold full ownership rights (Hak Milik) over real estate; for them, primarily usage rights for buildings (Hak Pakai) or leasing arrangements are available. These general legal frameworks apply throughout the country, including Karangreja's broader surroundings. To gain detailed knowledge of local real estate market dynamics, it is recommended to contact the relevant administrative and land office authorities of Kabupaten Cirebon (Badan Pertanahan Nasional).
Safety and security
No settlement-specific, verifiable statistics regarding Karangreja's public safety situation appear in the available sources. It can be stated generally that rural, agricultural areas of West Java province – such as the Suranenggala kecamatan area – typically have lower crime rates than major cities or intensive tourism zones. Kabupaten Cirebon, as one of the province's busier transit regions, has the necessary police and administrative infrastructure in place. Nevertheless, it is important to emphasize that these observations reflect the broader regency and provincial-level general picture and cannot be considered a Karangreja-specific safety assessment. Before traveling, it is advisable to obtain information from local authorities or reliable, up-to-date sources.
Tourist attractions
No direct data on named tourist attractions concerning Karangreja appears in the available sources. The settlement belongs to the territory of Kabupaten Cirebon, which is as a whole connected to Cirebon city – the regency's namesake. Cirebon city, whose administration is separate from the regency (Kota Cirebon and Kabupaten Cirebon are distinct units), falls within the sphere of influence of Suranenggala kecamatan as the region's cultural and commercial center. Cirebon city itself is known for numerous historical monuments and cultural heritage within the broader Javanese context. Areas close to the northern coastal region of Kabupaten Cirebon typically have natural features opening onto the Java Sea. In Karangreja's immediate surroundings, the agricultural landscape and everyday rural life form the character of the location; however, named, source-supported attractions should be sought exclusively in connection with the regency and the neighboring Kota Cirebon, for which precise lists current local sources should be consulted.
Summary
Karangreja is a small, sparsely documented village in West Java province, belonging to Suranenggala kecamatan and Kabupaten Cirebon regency. Its location within the transit zone connecting the eastern and western halves of Java Island marks the broader regional context, which is summarized in the "gateway role" characterization of Kabupaten Cirebon. In the absence of direct, settlement-level data, the real estate market, public safety, and tourism characteristics of the place can only be reliably interpreted at the regency or provincial level. For detailed, up-to-date information, it is recommended to contact local administrative bodies and verified local sources.
