Move into a locality that has a market nearby as it becomes quite easy to shop for groceries and other necessities. I would also recommend them to find a place to live that has a good wifi signals as some places in Delhi have very poor data connection.

A person moving to my city should know about public transport as it helps in getting comfortable with the place. Also knowing about places with cheap food is very beneficial. Delhi is a megacity where people from all over the country come in order to make a better life for themselves, and there is a lot of unity in diversity.

Good and lively city. Beautiful place with nice people. A city accepting everyone with open arms. Having all facilities required in our daily lives. Both local markets and hypermarkets are there. The parks having sea of trees add to the beauty of the city. Although having a traffic issue the city is a good place.

Delhi is well known for the varieties of food. Old Delhi is to be visited if you are a food lover. If you wish to explore there is Qutub Minar, Lal Quila to see the Indian heritage. You can visit the India Gate to see the Amar Jawan Jyoti. Sarojini Nagar is a good place to hunt for clothing. Just enjoy the beauty of Delhi with a Delhite.

Moving to Delhi is such a good idea if you’re capable of finding home, job and knows how to deal with people properly. There is that much crowd that if the person wants to glow he/she has to put marvelous efforts in their work. But also Delhi is good city to be shifted on.

Delhi is a metropolitan city of India. It attracts people from all over the country for high paying jobs. You should be able to live in matchbox like houses on rent and better to cook your own food. It would save you from the high expenses of living in this city. It has opportunities for high quality education and good standard of living. You will enjoy a lot!

Delhi is a busy place with great hustle and bustle throughout the day, topped with an active nightlife. One must know common phrases in the local language because most people here understand Hindi. When looking for residence, which could either be done before or after staying for a couple of days, stay temporarily in a hotel to have a good grasp of the surroundings. Janakpuri and Vasant Kunj are safe residential areas with a comfortable way of living, and peaceful societies.

Delhi is a city and a union territory of India containing New Delhi, the capital of India. It is a metropolitan City. New Delhi is often said to be “Dilwaalon ki Dilli”, a place where people have happy hearts and lively nature.

It is a very beautiful city. We have a lot of tourist attractions here like the Red Fort, Qutub Minar, Jantar Mantar. We also have many markets like Sarojini Nagar, Kamla Nagar, Lajpat Nagar, Rajouri etc. Apart from markets there are various malls to shop from. Delhi is a shoppers paradise I would say. We also have a variety of street food to choose from. It is a very good city for you especially if you are a youngster because of the lifestyle it provides to its people and the jobs that it offers.

Be prepared to face varying weather patterns because summers are quite hot here with multitudes of loo and humid days which is followed by a messy monsoon period and then winters which get quite chilly. if one is not comfortable in a certain type of climatic condition, then they should reconsider because the weather is a major deterrent for many.

Sakshi, says: 2020

Delhi is the best metropolitan city in India one can move to. There are ample work opportunities for everybody, ranging from domestic work to jobs in Multinational corporations. The rent is among the lowest in the country. The districts are extremely well connected through the Metro system and the bus services operate in a timely and efficient manner. The street food is cheap and internationally renowned. The major problem with this city though, is that the crime rates are also the highest in the country. It’s a great place to work and live a meaningful life.

Though Delhi is highly polluted, it is good place for somebody who is about to start his/her career as it has cheap accommodation, the commute is easy since there is a huge chain of metro and public transport is easily available, also not to forget thee are good places to visit for recreation.

Transportation in Delhi is hassle-free. The metro rail network is spread across the entire city and one can reach distant places quite easily. Also, the street food in Delhi, is to die for. There are a few historical places that one can visit. It is a wonderful city.

Delhi is a great city live. However, one should keep the following points in the mind.
– It’s heavily crowded.
– It has the maximum numbers of cars. Therefore, very heavy traffic.
– Delhi’s weather is also very different from other cities.
– Summers are really hot and the temperature can rise up to 47 degrees Celsius.
– Winter is very chilling also.

If someone moves to Delhi, he/she should be ready for Delhi summer because it’s very hot in summer and should get ready for pollution too. Although Delhi is very great place and look for a better future also and people here are more fond of fashion also and it’s a great city.

Delhi is famous for its tourist attractions, food, and it’s marketplaces. Since its the national capital of the country you can explore rashtrapati bhavan, parliament house, India gate. If you are dedicated to history you can visit qutub minar, humayun’s tomb. You can’t visit Delhi without seeing it’s historic heart, winding lanes and the Jameh Masjid (Mosque). We recommend taking a guided walking tour of this area to take in Chandni Chowk, the Spice Market, Mosque and Red Fort.

Hemalatha, says: 2020
