Bojongsari – village in the Jampangkulon district, Kabupaten Sukabumi
Bojongsari is a small settlement in West Java (Jawa Barat), Indonesia, which belongs to the Jampangkulon kecamatan of Kabupaten Sukabumi. Based on its coordinates (-7.3011316, 106.6468148), it is located on the southern part of Java island, in the internal, hilly areas of the Sukabumi region. The broader Sukabumi region forms part of Jawa Barat province, within whose administrative system the kabupaten (regency) and the city centre, Kota Sukabumi, are separate units. Direct, Bojongsari-specific data cannot currently be found in available administrative and statistical sources, therefore the following presents the broader context related to the Jampangkulon district and the Kabupaten Sukabumi region.
General overview
Bojongsari belongs to the Jampangkulon kecamatan, which is located in the southern part of Kabupaten Sukabumi and is characterized by the hilly-mountainous landscape typical of the region. Kabupaten Sukabumi is one of the most extensive regencies of Jawa Barat province, whose internal areas contain numerous smaller villages (desa) and communities, including Bojongsari. The broader Sukabumi area is generally characterized by plantation agriculture (tea, coffee, rubber) and self-sufficient rice cultivation, particularly in the more remote, southerly-lying districts. Kota Sukabumi, namely Sukabumi city – which administratively distinguishes itself as an enclave within the kabupaten – counted 373,189 inhabitants in the first half of 2025, and the entire region is generally characterized by cooler climate and distinctive mountain microclimatology. In the case of Bojongsari, owing to its Jampangkulon location, it is a rural, non-tourist-oriented village, whose local economy presumably rests on agriculture and local commerce – but this latter assertion follows from general experience regarding the regency's southern districts, not from direct local data.
Real estate and investment
Real estate market data pertaining to Bojongsari does not appear in available sources, therefore the following discusses the broader context of Kabupaten Sukabumi and Jawa Barat. In the internal, more southern districts of Kabupaten Sukabumi – such as the Jampangkulon kecamatan – real estate prices are typically lower than in the vicinity of the capital Bandung or coastal tourism zones. The value of rural plots is determined primarily by infrastructure accessibility, transport connections, and agricultural potential. In Jawa Barat province, infrastructure developments over the past decade (expressways, railways) have brought real estate market stimulation in some regions; however, this has primarily affected areas lying near Bandung and Bogor; the Jampangkulon district is located at a distance from these. It is important for foreign investors to know that Indonesia's land ownership regulation generally restricts direct land ownership by foreign individuals: the so-called Hak Milik (full ownership) is accessible only to Indonesian citizens. Foreigners typically may use real estate within the framework of long-term leasing contracts (Hak Sewa, Hak Pakai), therefore the involvement of a local legal expert is necessary before every investment decision.
Safety and security
Public safety statistics and police data pertaining to Bojongsari are not available in accessible sources. The rural districts of Kabupaten Sukabumi and Jawa Barat province are generally characterized by low-density, rural communities, where traditional small-community social control is strong. Larger crime risks are typically linked to major cities and tourism-frequented zones in Indonesia, not to internal, less-trafficked villages such as Bojongsari. Nevertheless, general conclusions about public safety can only be drawn on the basis of the broader regional context; more precise local conditions can be provided by local authorities or regional publications of the Indonesian Badan Pusat Statistik (BPS, Central Bureau of Statistics).
Tourist attractions
The available source material does not contain named tourist attractions pertaining to Bojongsari; therefore, restricting ourselves to directly verifiable data, it can be said that the Jampangkulon kecamatan and the southern region of Kabupaten Sukabumi are partially known among Indonesian nature-goers and ecotourism enthusiasts, primarily owing to the hilly-forested landscape, small rivers, and natural environment characteristic of the internal areas of Jawa Barat. Naturally attractive areas and coastal sites of general recognition can be found on the territory of Kabupaten Sukabumi on the southern coast; however, these are not directly attributable to Bojongsari, but are located in other parts of the regency. Kota Sukabumi, as the administrative and commercial centre of the region, may also serve as a starting point for visitors to the broader Sukabumi area, but lies at a considerable distance from Bojongsari. The Jampangkulon district itself may be of interest primarily to those with an interest in local agricultural tourism and nature walks; however, we are unable to provide source-based, named data on this matter.
Summary
Bojongsari is a small-scale, rural village in the internal regions of West Java, in the Jampangkulon kecamatan of Kabupaten Sukabumi. Independent, settlement-level data about the village is not available in accessible administrative and encyclopedic sources; embedded in the context of the broader region – the Sukabumi kabupaten and Jawa Barat province – the place is characteristically rural, agricultural, and non-tourism-oriented. In terms of real estate market, public safety, and tourism, the general characteristics of the regency and province can provide the primary orientation points for those who wish to become more closely acquainted with the area.
