But Mumbai is safe gaiz

But Mumbai is safe gaiz- Grapevine

Hey all, I'll be moving to Powai, Mumbai for my full time job in August. Wanted to know any tips that you all might have for me, little worried about budgeting as might have to save some for home as I gradually aim to take the home expenses on me(I'm natively from Delhi, so my family is there). If anybody have any female friend who is looking for flatmate then I would love to share accomodation.
PS: have been looking on FB groups, getsethome.com and many other platforms too, and willing to look for accomodation around 4-5 km to adjust to budget, if anyone knows some good localities which are safe for female then your help will be appreciated.

Saw people fighting over these cities, so decided to end the war. Compiled the data available in the public domain, and the results are shocking.

Bengaluru vs Gurgaon vs Mumbai

SF is really unsafe

Software Developer

I've been living in BLR all my life and been living in Gurgaon for about 4 months now because of company transfer. I thought BLR was bad until I came to Gurgaon.

1) The complete lack of apathy and compassion is off the charts here. People are so individualistic and small issues turn into huge fights. One example being a guy in a Fortuner hit my Hyundai hatchback from behind and screamed and made a scene when it was his fault and the guys all around supported him, I knew limited Hindi and I had to pay money to get the hell out of the place.

2) Climate and pollution: No words here. Extremely hot and polluted.

3) Rents have almost reached BLR levels or more 

4) infrastructure: I thought BLR infra was shit but roads are non existent here and streets get water logged and stays waterlogged for 10 hours even after rains stopped lol.

It feels like a dead City with no life, depressing and a concrete jungle.

Living in Gurgaon makes living in BLR seem like heaven

Gurgaon folks: don't move to Bengaluru  
 Bengaluru folks: don't move to Gurgaon

- Young boys of Juhu, Bandra, Versova all look like Aryan Khan and Vedang Raina (Archies starcast), like everyone is an actor here or what?
- The traffic isn't shitty, the drivers are. They are coming at you from everywhere, left right front. If you can drive here, you are good for anywhere tbh
- Only 1% of the Two wheelers drivers wear helmet. No fear of traffic cops if not for life?
- The roads man, the roads. Never appreciated Delhi/Gurgaon more than seeing such tiny roads across the country 
- The pay disparity is on the face! Posh areas with tall buildings are lined with small houses - tarpaulin roof, bare walls but AC units
- The family bond is very evident - families watching TVs together with windows open (why don't they draw curtains tbh?) or be it on beaches over the weekend. It's cute nonetheless ❤️ 
- The safety is crazy (in a very good way). I was out at 10pm last night, and my mind was panicking like shit. But looks like, be it 10 am or 10pm, it is BAU for the city
- Have you seen the traffic signals? Apart from the usual, they have four tubelights in perpendicular. Just cannot jump lights now!
- Metro has 4 coaches 😆 

- The Sea heals parts of your soul you didn’t even know were broken 🥺

I'll add more 🫣

Some Mumbai observations as a non Mumbaikar

What do you think about infrastructure of Banglore with thoughts of yesterday's incident ?

Is it good or too bad 
Or just underpass should get closed ?

How many of you live in Bangalore?

I hate it but my company forces me to move there. It's one of the worst cities i lived. Weather and food is amazing but the quality of daily life is just not worth it with traffic, gundas, the constant digging and of course the supreme land owners demanding inflated rents

DevOps Engineer

Just visited Mumbai last weekend, it has somehow gotten worse over the last 5-6 years. Every 3rd or 4th road is either under construction or unusable. 

This girl from bumble legit defended Mumbai being safer than other metros literally after an illegal billboard fell on innocent people.

The "spirit of Mumbai" is Stockholm syndrome, most of the victims/residents just don't know it or have grown numb to it.

Every year people die on local train tracks and platforms, no one cares enough to do anything concrete about it.

Mumbai and Bangalore are both spiralling towards being borderline unliveable. Delhi NCR too to an extent. But the unfortunate reality is that they are economic hubs, hence people are forced to work there.

Decentralisation is the need of the hour, tier 2 and 3 cities must prepare themselves for reverse migration in the next few decades. I'm planning the same for myself if all goes well. It's not worth slowly dying in poisoned cities.

What's your first impression of Delhi/Gurgaon/Noida?

Welcome to Business Roles's Private Community

People have this weird notion that Delhi/Gurgaon isn't safe and that the folks here are as warm as an ice cube in Antarctica. Can you believe that? This narrative has been doing the rounds for so long that it's starting to affect the migration of people to this part of the world. But let me set the record straight.

Gurgaon is the real deal. It's the city with good infrastructure and a welcoming vibe for migrants. It's like the cool kid at the party, while Bangalore has a little something called the Bangalore police. Now, these folks, they've got a unique way of welcoming North Indians – by demanding money when they hear you speaking Hindi. Yes, you heard that right.

I've had not one but two laughable encounters with them. Picture this: I'm just out for a casual late-night walk at 11 PM (because who needs sleep, right?), and out pops Mr. Constable, asking for his "fee" and insisting it's against the law to stroll around at that hour. And guess what? I'm not the only one in this comedy club. Hundreds of people have taken to Twitter to share their own hilarious stories.

Now, let's switch gears and talk about Gurgaon. It's got the smooth roads, a fast track to the airport, and apartments where you don't need to sacrifice your life savings as a deposit. It's the practical choice for newcomers.

So, in a nutshell, let's keep challenging these stereotypes and celebrate the positives of each city. Gurgaon, you're the real MVP, and Bangalore, maybe it's time for you to rethink your police's comedy night. City rivalries – always good for a chuckle!

Great to see Delhi NCR people fighting the forced narratives of North vs South

Kaun se bubble me ho student? Golf course road pe rehte ho aur kaam karte ho / college jaate ho? 
  
 Reminds me of Vir Das. I live in 2 Gurgaons. One which has smooth roads, and other where people can’t even walk. 
  
 And yes - people here are arrogant, with zero civic sense - though that’s true for most cities in India, but def worse than Mumbai (stayed there for 10 years, hence can see the difference clearly). 
  
 Let’s not even talk about the air quality, extreme heat and cold (subjective, I know). 
 Traffic post pandemic is not smooth either. In fact people drive extremely bad, and carry a lot of ego while on the road. 
  
 Couple of good things: 
 1. Proximity to airport 
 2. Size of houses 
  
 PS : staying here for the past 4 years.

NMIMS Hyderabad asks unplaced students to “opt out” of placements. The things these B Schools will do for 100% placement!

Wow, what’s even more surprising is the reply: seems like students are actually agreeing to it.  
  
 Wonder what kind of pressure tactics they’ve used here.

Bangalore's infra has been crumbling under the weight of its population growth. I believe that yesterday's traffic jam was just a trailer and situation will only worsen with time. 

Seriously contemplating moving out of Bangalore after being here for last 5 years. 

People who moved out, where did you move? And are you happy now with your decision ?

People who moved out of Bangalore, which city did you move to ?

PUNE✌🏻 
 much peaceful compared to Bangalore and work culture is way better than my experiences in Bangalore.  
 Festival celebrations are just amazing and no bad experiences since past 1.5 yr 
 Congestion is piling up this city just like BLR, as a lot of tech companies are gearing up for new offices and new tech parks are already under construction - specifically KHARADI area and they say almost 1.5 lac IT jobs will open up in the next 3-4 years.  
 Traffic woes are same,but again depends on the which part you stay - as we have similar deadlock junctions in Pune as well, if compared to BLR.

Is It Safe to Travel Mumbai This Week

Welcome to Indian Startups's Private Community

A trend I just have resently start noticing
#realEstates #Reality #Profitable #Businesses
#YouOwnYourEntireEarnedSalary

Bengaluru vs Mumbai

Alright,  Bangalore is the best city in India. It's not just the best, it's in a league of its own compared to other cities.

First off, let's talk about the weather. Bangalore's weather is perfect all year round, magical. Unlike heat waves of Delhi and the shit humidity of Mumbai, Bangalore's climate is the best. 

Who wants to sweat anytime you step out or freeze to death in winters? Not me. 

Bangalore is where the real innovation happens. Really smart people making this country better. These Delhi Bombay kids caught lacking for real.

And the people? Bangalore's got the best of the country. It's cosmopolitan. You've got people from all over the country, and everyone's more educated and progressive. 

So, let's cut to the chase. Bangalore is the best city, hands down. The rest of India can keep dreaming, but they'll never catch up.
