The language most commonly used by Cikarang residents is Indonesian, this is because Cikarang as an industrial area has diversity in terms of ethnicity and language. However, There are two regional languages used by the natives in Cikarang, namely Sundanese (North Coast dialect) and Betawi (Cikarang dialect).[12][13]
The Sundanese language is mostly spoken in Central Cikarang (Cikarang Pusat), South Cikarang (Cikarang Selatan) and East Cikarang (Cikarang Timur). Meanwhile, the Betawi language is spoken in North Cikarang (Cikarang Utara) and West Cikarang (Cikarang Barat). The boundaries of the use of these two languages in Cikarang overlap, but are mainly delimited by National Route 1 (known as Jalan Pantai Utara). The distribution is that the Sundanese language is spoken in the south while the Betawi language is spoken in the north.[14]
