5) Dating Scene

People are mostly conservative here. Although Dating Scene exists, it's very very less(nil to most people). You will be disappointed.

6) Commutation

Huge amount of Vehicles, many not following rules, many hurrying to overtake, to get inserted into the road, lot of honking, and time-eating traffic congestion. It's not at all a good experience and will suck energy outta you.

7) Power cuts

Power cut is very rare but it exists.

8) Food Food is good, you get variety of them.

9) Internet Cellular Data is very cheap but also relatively slow. Fiber network seems to be available.

10) Education Education Quality is not much good for price they ask.

Feel free to ask anything about life in Bangalore.

I think it was about which city and country one would want to live in, given the opportunity of always remote. And for me that’s India and in India that’s Bangalore.

All these points you’ve gone on about - compared to where?

Dating scene worse than Chennai? Ahmedabad?

AQI worse than Delhi?

Water and sanitation worse than Kolkata?

I mean I didn’t get your rebuttal like response :)

Yeah, I agree that Bengaluru is Best city when it comes to India(the only country i have lived in)

You are comparing Bangalore to other cities which i didn't intend to(given i have never lived in other places tbh).

For me, Question was about Ideal Place to live and Bangalore is not ideal place according to me.

Maybe my response is not rebuttal but the fact that Bangalore is not ideal place.

I am afraid you are still not getting it. Bangalore is the ideal place for me. It may not be for you and I am sure rightly so.

No place can be ideal for everybody - not Lisbon, not London, not SF.

Thanks! It'd be great if someone could go on about this for Mumbai as well.
