Pakulonan: A Subdistrict in North Serpong, South Tangerang

Pakulonan is an urban community (kelurahan) situated within the North Serpong (Serpong Utara) district of South Tangerang City, Banten, Indonesia. It is recognized as a developing area, partly due to the presence of large-scale planned towns by private developers within South Tangerang, contributing to the city's rapid growth as a satellite city of Jakarta.

Pakulonan is located in North Serpong, South Tangerang City, Banten. South Tangerang is approximately 30 km southwest of Jakarta and is part of the Greater Jakarta metropolitan area.

TransJakarta also operates a Tangerang-Jakarta integration service (S11 bus route) connecting Terminal BSD to Jelambar in West Jakarta, which can be accessed from the broader South Tangerang area.

Pakulonan contributes to the urban fabric of South Tangerang as a residential area, influenced by the surrounding planned developments and commercial activities that characterize North Serpong and the wider city.
