If you buy a bungalow in Kerala, it can cost you somewhere around 50 to 75 lakh rupees.
If you buy it in Delhi, it might cost you approximately four or five Crore rupees easily.
And if you buy it in Mumbai, that same bungalow might cost you even 50 crore rupees.

Point of the story is - Living standard in Tier 1 Metros is super high.

So shouldn't we shift to tier 2/tier 3 cities in India?

In this video, I explain this very concept that why is it sensible to move to a Tier 2, 3 city in India and save your expenses. I will help you understand how and when should you do it.

Do watch this video till the end to have a holistic understanding :)

I have shifted from Bangalore to karkala (a small town in Karnataka) during first covid Lockdown. Karkala is also my birth place and where I did my studies. Pro’s are cost of living is very low, no traffic, no pollution. But is it all good ? Answer is NO. Biggest problem is socializing. As I am single finding very hard to socialize with people or school / college friends as their thought process, wavelength never match with mine. What I notice is People in small towns don’t grow out of caste, religion barrier. Now I am planning to shift back to Bangalore. This is my experience, it’s not a suggestion or I am not discouraging anyone to shift to smaller cities.

I lived in Bangalore for 12 years. Didn’t like it. Came to Madurai. Enjoyed it. Moved to US earned well. Came back to my hometown Near Tiruppur. Bought 10 acres of farm and living my life

[TausifAhmad]

Can you put Ranchi in your list my target is to move back to my hometown and buy a new home as I am almost done with metroes.

[abhishekmukherjee]

I am a retired CEO of an MNC and recently sold my flat in Delhi and decided to move to Pune. We are right now in the process of moving. I did it because of the same reason that Mr Srivastava pointed out.
Apart from the cost of living, at our age, we are looking for better weather, less pollution and a relaxed pace of life. we also wanted a place with a garden which we managed to get spending about 75% of the price of our flat in Delhi.
I really cannot comment on what younger people should do but I know that my son (42) who lives and loves the quality of life in Jakarta would not like to come to Delhi even for a much higher salary.

If you've been born and brought up in a metro city and plan to move to a tier 2 or smaller towns, be ready to respect and live with the culture, ways of living of people there.. which is vastly different than the metros

[saurabhm]

I'm from Mumbai and tried the whole move out of metro thing. Issue is the mentality of people in smaller places is really like it is 1950 or earlier. Just won't work for someone born and brought up in a cosmo metro.

I quit the job in Bangalore after shifted to my native place( Malemadu region) 400km from Bangalore. We have some agricultural land and I started organic farming because our area comes near Western ghat region where no problem for water. I grow cardamom, coconut, nut meg, banana, different types of exotic fruits and vegetables without any hassle. People here are more friendier helpful than bangalore . Tourisist places are very near, pure air, fresh ground water available everywhere.

For me it would be any city on NH 4 in Karnataka ( Bengaluru to Belgaum), the best being Hubli with good weather ( not too cold and raining always like Bengaluru and not too hot like Bellary or Gulbarga), good water like sugar (malaprabha), existing of small scale industry with Tarihal, Gokul industrial estate giving plenty of opportunities for jobs, airport ( with connecting flights to all major cities of Bharat), cosmopolitan nature ( it's called chota mumbai because of this), and off course for children education there is IIT Dharwad, BVB, SDM, KLE and all other lingayath colleges for engineering, medical, pharmaceutical, commerce and science where people from all over India and africa come to Hubli to get education. By road it's in the center of Bengaluru, Hyderabad, Pune/Mumbai and when u get bored there is Goa which Hubli people love to go very often. There is no language problem because people speak 5 languages (Kannada, Hindi, English, Marathi and 5 ur mother tongue like Konkani, Tamil, Telugu, Tulu etc). Btw, Infosys Hubli just started. As lot of Hubliiets are there in the US, Hubli has a potential to become a start up hub on similar lines of Bengaluru.

The pursuit of Happiness is always a pursuit. It's never complete. I believe it's more of a state of mind.
Best of luck 👍

I shifted to Goa in 2012 as i got job opportunity, since then I have been living here.
In my experience it is not cheap to stay here..I am living about 15 km from main city Panjim. Room rents are 10k to 12 for 1 Bhk and 14-16 k for 2BHK.
Villas and invididua houses costs minimum 1 crore. Rents might be still less as compared with Tier-1 cities but it will match up if you consider vegetable cost..It is almost double here as it is solely dependant on Maharashtra and Karnataka.
Major problem here is healthcare. Hospitals charges are very high and doctors are highly incompetent even for common cold also they will prescribe CTscan and and minimum bill will be 10k.
2) another concern is transport as ola and uber not available, local taxis charge you 1 k even for 100 metres distance also. And state transport and local buses are not available after 8pm.
Most of the roads are narrow, traffic control is poor .
However if you have your car, bundle of money and ready to compromise for healthcare then it's the best place to shift.
In Gov and other offices of you speak local language then only they are keen to help, for outsiders they are always reluctant to help.
Positive side is, it is salubrious place with less pollution.

I think there is only 1 city in India..where i can roam abt freely and safely..anytime of the day and night..so..i love it here in Mumbai

[laxmikarpe]

I am from Goa and work in Blore . I can easily say that a equivalent apartment purchase in Goa is more expensive than Bangalore. In most aspects I find Goa more expensive. I would want Goa in your chart to check the cost analysis.

Kerala has huge union problem

Jihad is another serious problem
