Arrogant society residents

I recently shifted from Koramangala to a rented 2bhk in a gated society in HSR.

Coming from Koramangala, people were approachable...youngsters and family people alike. But here, I noticed people hardly talk to each other. No one is seen on morning or evening walks. Made me feel something is off.

Today, while speaking to a maid, she disclosed that most residents here are arrogant and very private. This society is middle class and not particularly rich.

Is this common in Bangalore societies? I was planning to buy a house in a society but have second thoughts now.

Dude, just because people aren't speaking to others doesn't mean they are arrogant.

They are like, 'Jio, aur jeene do.' The best kind of gated community.

Which one is it? Asking for a friend.

I have lived in societies in Mumbai. And families usually interact with each other.

Here, I don't expect others to interact with us. But where I am staying it's dead silent.. literally. People don't even get out of their own houses. There are kids but they are hardly seen playing in the evenings.

If not arrogant, it is quite weird.

I have seen similar case in gated communities located in other parts of city as well.

Mostly where techies stay, this kind of calm and peaceful ambience can be expected.

Really?.. I hope you are not from ncr/gurgaon. Because that would be ironic.

I usually find people from that area matching the description that you mentioned.

Well, you can invite them to talk to you and maybe do activities together. Take the initiative.
Be the change you want to see in your housing society.
