"- pollution can be a big problem."

This would already be a showstopper for me. I have spent a week in Mumbai and never want to be in such an environment again.

I was recently in Seoul South Korea for a month, and there were a few very bad pollution days. At first I thought there must be a fire close. Then the locals informed me it comes from China and their factories. Koreans are obviously not happy about it, and there seemed to be a sense of disdain for China.

To be fair I've heard it varies a lot depending on the season in Mumbai. I was in Mumbai in December and it was honestly fine, at least in my opinion.

I am sure it changes but I wouldn’t want to live there for sure and I feel sorry for the people who have to put up with it.
