Currently finding affordable rental homes in several indian cities has become increasingly challenging due to rising living costs. Major cities like mumbai, Bangalore, and delhi attract numerous job seekers and companies, leading to heightened demand for housing. In mumbai, often referred to as the “City of Dreams,” the combination of a burgeoning population and a booming economy has resulted in some of the highest rental costs in the country. Even small apartments are now priced significantly higher, making it difficult for many to find suitable housing within their budgets.
One example is a one bedroom apartment that comes with a hefty price tag. Located in Matunga, the 1BHK apartment includes a small living room, a compact bedroom, and a kitchen. There is also a small staircase that leads up to a loft for extra storage space. And the rent is? Rs 45,000 per month. A chawl in mumbai refers to small rooms in multi-story structures with narrow corridors where the apartments are lined up next to each other. The entire family usually lives in each single-room apartment.
An X user shared an eye-capturing image of a luxury 2BHK apartment in Mumbai’s Pali Hill neighborhood. However, what left people talking was the very compact bathroom, where the washing machine was positioned just above the commode. Can you guess the price? With a whopping monthly rent of Rs 1.35 lakh per month, the apartment also has a hefty security deposit of Rs 4 lakh. The post instantly became the focal point of online conversation, highlighting the challenges of urban living.
