A person moving to Chennai must know about the amount of pollution in the city. Some people may not know about the pollution level and find it difficult to live here. It’s an overpopulated city, hence finding a good job is quite difficult.

Karthika, says: 2020

Chennai is one of the most populous cities in the world. The main thing to be kept in mind when you move into the city is its pollution and untidy environment. Sometimes, an outsider may feel irritated when he moves in traffic during peak hours. Other than that, the city always welcomes anybody from any part of the world.

The weather in Chennai is hot and humid for most months of the year. People with preference for such climate enjoy the city. It has good hangout places like the beach. Traffic is extreme and there is a higher amount of air pollution. The street food service is available almost all the time.

Vinayak, says: 2020

It’s a metropolitan city. People should know to adapt to this busy lifestyle, traffic and pollution. It’s a place where the cost of living is on the higher side so people should calculate their expenses before moving here especially rents and kids’ education are so expensive. Getting a job is easier than in most cities so the expenses won’t be a big problem.

Shweta, says: 2020

The city is polluted and congested and I recommend wearing a mask when you step outside. Avoid street foods as it will often lead to indigestion. Metro is costly here. Opt for a bus ride instead. In summer, there is water scarcity. Conserve water all the time.

Akshata, says: 2020

Anyone moving to Chennai should know though there are plenty of opportunities to work and show off their talent. There are also certain disadvantages like pollution, high cost of living etc., Chennai is also a highly competitive place as people from different parts of the world come here to find extended career opportunities.

Prachi, says: 2020

People are very friendly here. We can easily make friends. Food items are very cheap with good quality. We can survive here with less living cost. There is no pollution here. We will get a good environment and air. We can buy clothes and provisions with low cost. We can lead our life here calmly.

Manash, says: 2020

Someone moving to Chennai should know that water facility is not that good here. He should have a vehicle because the provisions stores and other necessary shops are not available in the vicinity or else he must take public transport. He should not be allergic to dust because the air in my city is polluted because of the industries.

Jayita, says: 2020

Chennai is one of the busiest cities in India. The people are very friendly and will help you whenever you are last or just indeed of directions. Chennai is a melting pot of a variety of cultures, cuisines and religions. It is a bit polluted since almost 10% of the state’s population live here.

Harsha, says: 2020

Chennai is one the fastest developing city of India. It is one of the big cities in India. It is the capital of the Tamil Nadu state. It has a huge population making it as a crowded city. The whole city looks busy all the time. It has some memorable and remarkable tourist spots. Many MNCs like to invest here as they will get a lot of consumers. But, other side of this huge city is really messy and dirty. A lot of poor people live in slums. They really don’t even afford their basic needs. Chennai looks really dirt because of so much littering and many irresponsible activities by the citizens living here. But atlast, it is good place for doing business and jobs.

Chennai is very much known for population, pollution and climate. People who can adapt working with a vast variety of changing culture and climate, can opt for this city. Though it cannot be compared with Mumbai – the city that never sleeps, it has an incredible trait to it – it welcomes all people; of varied culture, demography and language. People here are mostly friendly and polite. For those who have cost of living in their checklist, Chennai is not high and not low cost city.

Manjushree, says: 2020

Chennai was awarded as the safest city to live and food is great here. You can get cuisines from all over the world. The pollution rate is remarkably low.

Anyone, moving here must realize it has year-round hot and humid weather. first thing they must look for in a house should be availability of air conditioner. Multiple mode of transportation is available still if they prefers to travel in comfort should look to buy a car, as all the buses and trains are usually overcrowded most of the time. I would also advise people moving from abroad not to expect a very hygienic environment, people don’t take advises positively on this matter.

Aswathy, says: 2020

Chennai is a metropolitan city with lots and lots of traffic and pollution. I recommend whomsoever coming to my city to deal with these main two things. Apart from that Chennai is a city of various delicious foods. It is a house of culture combination with lots of people from various cities and states come together for their jobs and to find their living here.

Mohammad, says: 2020

Anyone moving to Chennai needs to consider the following, the city is Hot and Humid almost all year-round also there is water scarcity and last but not the least it has high air pollution, but on the brighter side the pros are it has well connected transportation, it is secure city with very less crime rate.

In a positive way, a person know the facilities to his family’s settlement, educational facilities, jobs, health/medication facilities, and infrastructure etc. ie a basic needs to run a family and live a healthy and prosperous life. The climate is the disaster in this city, other demerits are pollution and language.

Anyone who would like to move to Chennai should adopt to live with the extreme hot climatic weather. And Chennai is the safest and less polluted city in India. Chennai, it is famous for south Indian dishes. It is one of the metropolitan cities in India. Chennai is the thickly populated area with more traffic.

Himakshee, says: 2020

Someone moving to my city must know that the pollution level in and around the city I live is very high. And they also must be aware of that the high pollution level is due to the high traffic in my city.
