Butterworth the rent is more cheap. Because the houses price is overpriced in Penang Island.
But in Penang Island you have more jobs and also more shops.
But a good location is near the second bridge. They are building alot of apartments in Batu Kawan. Also is near from a shopping mall.

thanks for that although the prices i have seen for 2 / 3 bedroom condos on the island are only between 1000 and 1500 , a good choice of condos.
for me it is not a problem to be on the mainland
i will have a motorbike so i can travel to the island.
the thought of new housing by the south bridge sounds ideal.
