The development of New Town and luxury residences along the EM Bypass have been nothing short of a miracle for Kolkata. Wide and sprawling roads, hundreds of acres of green zones, public wifi, entertainment hotspots, all add to making it the place of choice to stay as a family in neighborhoods that embrace you. You will find an eclectic mix of high ranking retired officers and young dynamic corporate honchos in residential complexes and look forward to meaningful and enjoyable interactions with them. Senior citizens find a renewed interest in life with the plethora of engagements they immerse themselves in. Children skate and cycle around fearlessly within the confines.
The development of organized residential complexes has changed and redefined the meaning of location. If you have convenient access to the property, don't think twice. Get a much bigger apartment for less, buy a big fat SUV, and even save money doing all this. Kolkata has to spread out and eject from this culture of location obsession.
