Came to Bangalore to join an in-office role, the org and role is good.
But coming from Gurgaon, I was not able to like the city.
Some cons:
Extremely poor infrastructure like a tier 2 city
Every govt official is corrupt, police can harass you anywhere
You neither feel homely nor is there any vibe of a cosmopolitan city. Local politics will not let this city become a cosmopolitan startup hub. Gurgaon is so so much better.
Everyone just wants to loot money, everything is expensive. Rent is high, landlord deducting 1 month extra rent, unnecessarily high security amount, cook and maid everything is so effin’ expensive
Alcohol is expensive.
Good food is expensive
The value of money is lesser here as compared to the rest of the country.
I have a flight tonight and I am so happy that it’s a one way flight.
I don’t mean to offend anyone, but bangalore can be very lonely and it has been so for many of my friends.
Particularly ease of life is much higher in NCR and that’s why a lot of people move back. Those who feel otherwise haven’t lived in NCR so Bangalore is more of just a bubble for them.
Adios!
Lost you at Gurgaon is so much better. Having lived in Delhi and Gurgaon for the initial part of my career, Bangalore was a cakewalk compared to it.
The situation you listed is same everywhere else, but atleast I get clean air.
Clean air and no water to be precise.

Agreed on everything you have said.
I think even the people who live here would agree that, despite that if people are staying, mostly it's because of dependencies like work, family and ofc the community(bangalore is the best hub of tech in India, no denying that fact!)
Ofcourse It’s a tech hub, but cities like Gurgaon are not far away. Also, I see Bangalore lagging behind soon due to multiple issues plus the local politics that is forcing so many things on us.
All tier 1 cities are screwed...Period.
True but then you have to play the cards you are dealt unless you are able to make 3-5 crores.
Gurgaon, NCR are not at all safe (specially for girls) at any time of the day (obviously night is out of question). I have lived in Gurgaon, Delhi, Bangalore and love Bangalore the most.
This is factually incorrect. You just like bangalore too much and that’s really nice
What is the source of your facts?
Sorry to see you go, all the best Jim
Thanks man!

Some cons:
Why to stay in this shitty place? Roads - Pathetic Traffic - World Class Pathetic Public Transport - Pathetic Water - Pathetic Sewage - Pathetic Localites - Highly Non Supportive Service Class (Electrician, Plummer, Carpenter) - Pathetic...
Hey Bangalore peeps, This questions is for the peeps having a corpus of more than 1 CR Whats stopping you from moving to a tier2 city where you can easily leave the chaos of Bangalore and give your children enough opportunities?

Pros and Cons for Life, culture, Long term setting, from the perspective of someone who has lived in Delhi ncr
It's crazy how this native-non native issue persists immensely in Bangalore. No other developed city like Mumbai, Hyderabad, Delhi, Pune has this.
Bangalore is going down big time with so much rising hate in the city.
Then why were these Kannada people crying during COVID and begging the government to make outsiders come to Bangalore...
