Mumbai-The True Essence of Cosmopolitan Living


Mumbai, before what we see now, was made up of seven islands. The inhabitants were mostly people from the fishing communities, which is why you will see small villages in the city itself. Reclamation of the areas between the islands led to these different islands forming one big mass of land. This also led to major railways and roadways getting constructed, slowly and steadily turning Mumbai into the country's major hub for financial, commercial and entertainment. 


Also known as the city that never sleeps, many people from around the country and beyond have arrived in Mumbai, and continue to do so, in search for a living that they have always desired. It is no wonder that Mumbai is the 8th most populous city in the world. Major urban areas like Navi Mumbai, Thane, and Kalyan shows how much the city is expanding. Major projects are being taken up to create more apartments in Mumbai. Needless to say, developmental projects like the Metro Line - 3 that will cover Colaba-Bandra-Seepz has greatly influenced the upcoming properties in Mumbai. 


The Ghatkopar-Versova metro line that recently opened has resulted in the rise in commercial and residential values in Versova. Many bungalows and buildings are being undertaken by MHADA for redevelopment. The fact that this area is easily accessible to other major parts of the city like BKC, the airports, and South Mumbai has also played a major role in the changes that is happening in Versova in terms of real estate.


However, finding the perfect apartment in mumbai can be an exhausting and excruciating task. The fact that it is one the most expensive cities to live in India doesn't help much either.With space being one of the major problems, properties in Mumbai are getting taller with towering apartment complexes. The good thing about this development is that real estate developers are making sure that its residents will have all the amenities they will need in the complex itself. Also, residents organize festivals and social gatherings throughout the year. Therefore, people of all ages can enjoy the cultural festivals celebrated in Mumbai within their complex, without having to venture out much


Although the task of find the right property in mumbai maybe painful, once you do, you will feel the love for this city growing every day. A lot of other cities in India might call itself a cosmopolitan city, the true essence of it can be felt only in Mumbai.
