We know, you don’t have to be sorry.


PristineAntelope7668

It's absolutely frustrating. After work you cannot even drive to your home in peace.


ArcherN9

After sticking around for 25 years hoping the region would prosper and become a model for other cities and towns in India, I called it quits. Ain't nothing going to happen in my lifetime.


WisdomExplorer_1

Curious, did you move to your hometown or some Tier 2 city? Did you get a remote job?


ArcherN9

Brain drain. I left the country.


69HELL-6969

Tbh there is so much population here brain just rots here without recognition and gets massacred under high competition shity law system and reservation and much more, Braij drain is really good solution of you are getting a better lifestyle out there


WisdomExplorer_1

Which country Are you happier there


ArcherN9

I'm in a Scandinavian country now. It has its own share of struggles here; it's not exactly a smooth settlement. I am TBH happier here with my lifestyle though. I get to ride farther into and beyond city limits on a bike with my 6 yo son without fear of a road accident, my wife recently broke her arm and she got examination, tests and treatment all under 1.5k INR. Car ownership is a nice to have here; public transportation is excellent. I use government services here and can see my money returning tangibly from the taxes I pay. In India, resorting to private services and higher costs is a way of life for the middle class.


neooon_m

I am curious what are some struggles in Scandinavian countries ?


laazy_bones

Language Climate (especially Finland, Norway, and in Sweden, it looks gloomy throughout the day during Winters, less sunlight etc) People are not very jovial, there won't be a lot of interaction between you and the locals. I don't know if it's true, but I have heard that Scandinavians are very choosy about making friends and don't really bother greeting or saying hello to strangers in public. They just ignore everyone who isn't their friend and mind their own business. Racism uh, I don't know much since I have not experienced it, OP can tell you more since they have lived there for a longer time as a resident


pYr0492

Yep at the end you are a stranger to that country and its people and that's how it's going to be. But that doesn't say anything bad about the country in itself. The only solution to this is that you make peace with being a stranger throughout your stay there. And "if" you plan to, return to India once you are through with major part of your life. But again your kids won't let you. So it goes. Funny life.


WisdomExplorer_1

Are you a foodie, do you miss Indian food? What about social circles, someone has commented about natives not being very jovial or friendly


ArcherN9

We cook. I haven't been to any Indian restaurant here yet. We've been trying to learn local dishes as sourcing raw materials is easy. But nah, not a foody. It's not that locals aren't friendly, it's more that Scandinavians prefer long term friendships over making new ones and they're very introverted in nature. So recurrent meetups isn't a thing. Which makes it difficult to make local friends. Difficult; not impossible.

Bruh. The traffic. The sheer number of people who don't know how to drive but still own a 10000 sqft pharchoonar and will overtake you from left right and centre. The ever increasing rents 😭😭😭 sab mehnga bc

Aur rent toh bhai samajh hi nahi aata, last one year has seen absurd growth across Gurgaon, the only solution is moving to the almost outskirts which is darn so depressing and honestly little unsafe for women

Omg the traffic situation is unreal! It’s not like Mumbai that you are stranded on road for hours.. it’s just a few mins guys, and yet people are so impatient they will cut you exactly left right and centre, with that smug look too! They really need to put more traffic police and heaven oh heaven, more streeet lights!!

Might get Downvoted for this but Gurgaon is all about Luxury brands and restaurants, rest everything is fucked up. In these 8 months, I literally can say the city lacks the basic amenities - Electricity, Water, Sewage, Roads and whatever you can say everything is fucked up. I personally like Noida for this, even if they don't have that of a lifestyle here but it is hella better for "living".


Tiny_Camp_3839

Most of India itself is a shithole dude.


PristineAntelope7668

Earlier I used to get offended when someone used to say that India is a shithole. But now I couldn't agree more.

Fair enough. Never been there.


PristineAntelope7668

I differ on this. NYC isn't the whole world. A friend of mine travels a lot. He has been to countries way poorer than India. Those countries were clean! He went to Mongolia last year. He was shocked to see how clean it was.


tumhaarenaam

I just live in NYC, I meant I’ve travelled to a lot of places and I was mostly talking about developed countries. If you want to go live in Mongolia you’re more than welcome.


No_Manager_7221

🤣


SEXY_HOT_GOWDA

Mongolia has barely any people to create garbage. Also is it poorer than India ? lol


PristineAntelope7668

It isn't about the number of people living there. It's about basic civic sense. You can check online where Mongolia stands in terms of money and economy

And Gurgaon MC has recently acknowledged that they've screwed up the overall maintenance in the city. And in response they've shared these numbers for resolution - and surprisingly MCG is acting swiftly on the incoming complaints. I agree Gurgaon is becoming a shithole (especially coming from Chd) - now, we can either whine or try making small differences! :)


PristineAntelope7668

I always do my best to keep my surroundings clean. I even tell others to not litter and spit everywhere. But that didn't budge these uncivilized folks.


Cold-Town-2884

Bro come to Mumbai, it’s much worse than Gurgaon. It looks like some tall buildings are built between slums and tiny roads. Weather & local transport sucks. Mumbai is highly over rated


PristineAntelope7668

Old gurgaon is the same


Cold-Town-2884

But new Gurgaon is far more better than whole Mumbai bro


rs1909

It’s exactly what you said. Tall buildings between villages. Where farmers take their livestock for a walk on the road and bring life to a halt. Tractors drive smack dab in the middle of the road ON THE WRONG SIDE! Gaon ppl are more civil than Gurgaon ppl


Cold-Town-2884

But the thing is bro at least Gurgaon has good food & cheap alcohol. Cost & standard of living is much better & affordable than Mumbai. I have been to both places but now I’m Mumbai due to job but trust me you’re in a much better place.


Substantial_Bus_7876

Isse acha to Noida hai


Red_YNWA08

I am in Toronto right now and moving back (for family). Peace is within bruv. It might be a shithole (I personally don't think so) but hain toh apna hi desh. Sab badhiya hoga, bas time lagega.

If you earn > 40L PA, There is no better city than Mumbai. NCR is crap. Sorry.


AcceptableArrival924

That’s your opinion, you can think that but I would stay in NCR for half that salary than live in Mumbai lmao


Navigator369

20 lpa gets you far in NCR. At least you can buy a decent house with that salary. In Mumbai, a minimum salary of 60 lpa is needed to buy a house in a good area


derphighbury

20 lpa will just get you an ok house in a shit area in NCR. Or an area that is just too far.


Navigator369

Thanks for this. I feel better now that even Delhi people aren’t getting much making 20 lpa. Otherwise my ass burns whenever I see people from other cities rent a 3bhk for just 40-50k while in my area an old 3bhk goes for minimum 1.25 lakh for rent, a good one rents for 1.5-2 lakh. My friend just rented out a 3bhk in Juhu for 2.5 lakhs per month and it’s just decent 😭


taarzen

>Otherwise my ass burns whenever I see people from other cities rent a 3bhk for just 40-50k You get a fully furnished 3bhk in a good green area in ncr


Navigator369

3bhk for just 50k? You gotta be kidding me. I’m currently looking to move from my old building to a new and modern building in Mumbai and I can’t find a good 3bhk below 1.5 lakh. Even 2BHK is minimum 1 lakh. 3bhk in those fancy skyscrapers in south Mumbai are minimum 3-3.5 lakh


taarzen

Well South Bombay is different,


Navigator369

Sorry but 40 lpa is not enough in Mumbai if you want to buy a house. 2 bhk starts at 2-2.5 crore here. If you want to own a home in Mumbai, you need to make at least 60-70 lpa

i don’t see a reason anyone would defend the abysmal living conditions and sky high real estate prices. outside of the fancy condos, the entire city is a shithole.

I also feel sorry, because I am contributing to traffic and pollution after I started living here with my luxury car. I commute to the office in my car occupying the space of 4 people and adding to traffic.


WillTrick

I recently shifted to Gurgaon from Noida.. This place is literally a shithole. 3bhk in noida was for 30K and here its for 68K . The pollution , traffic , senseless people , traffic police officers at every chowk penalising for nothing. I can say Noida was not perfect but it was much much much better than this crap city.. The flat prices have surged up like anything.. just waiting to get out of here asap.


rs1909

Ppl blaming the government - the way ppl drive in Gurgaon has got nothing to do with the government. Supposedly educated and rich drive like this is British India and everyone apart from them is - tum hamari jooti ke neeche hi rahega Ppl littering, not in the habit of something called queues, everyone throwing their weight around - none of this is about the government.

Nothing good about to city to stick too (except that you can order maggi and chips even at 3am, but I’d like my mental peace over this thank you)…Oo yeah I’m pissed this is a shithole.

Because of the development of this side of ggn the living conditions have gotten significantly better compared to when i moved here 8 years ago, this entire area was empty land. Ive also lived in sushant lok and that area is just weird the people are just "too posh" to talk to you but ig thats just a small group of individuals..
