What residents appreciate the most
Residents in Indian cities can readily find affordable domestic help, cooks, and nursing staff. This significantly eases daily household management, allowing for a more comfortable and less stressful lifestyle, particularly for those with higher incomes who can afford such services.
hire nutritionist cook , physio/ physical activities every day not walking only slight weight lifting , live in helper/nurse ( will help u with the guilt ur feeling and u will know their in safe hands and taken well care )
With a ready to spend money attitude, you will get all things much easily here. Also ask for a remote job because a lot of companies do that in India, especially leader leadership roles as long as you’re good to travel when needed. That way you can stay either with your parents or close your parents, or have your parents move in with you.
maids n helpers are available at a good cost, home delivery is normal from online stores.

Indian cities offer a rich tapestry of cultural festivities and strong community ties. This environment fosters a sense of belonging and provides numerous opportunities for social engagement, contributing to a fulfilling personal life.
Kids spending time with parents / extended family: My parents have moved to Bangalore. They are in their 60s and have a blast with our kids! Cultural festivities: My wife and kids are preparing for a dance as part of cultural events in our community for Onam. Onam, btw is a festival we never celebrated until we moved here. And it's not just Onam, it's Ganesh chaturthi, dusshera, Id, Diwali.. You name it.
proximity to family and friends is a blessing even if they are a 2hr flight away. Just a sense of belongingness itself is therapeutic. U r amongst ur people and understood.

Where residents want improvements
New Delhi presents significant safety concerns, particularly for women, and is perceived as a low-trust society where various scams are common. This environment can lead to a constant sense of vigilance and distrust among residents, impacting their peace of mind and daily interactions.
I was walking on the street around shivaji stadium metro station. One baba with snake on his neck came to me and asked for money. I took my wallet out and took 10rs to put in his tokri. He then said me to take out some big money if i have any in my purse like 500. I have two five hundred and one 100 rs note i took in out and touched it. After that he immediately grabbed it and said if i dont leave all the money to him my family member will be dead and all the bad things about my family. I got very scared and left from there leaving all the money to him. Please be careful about it everyone nobody are trust worthy.
It's all about overall environment and safety , I always tell people in similar situation , just imagine your spouse gets into a conflict with a big politician son , they will put him in jail and also could kill him . Will you be able to do anything with your 1.2 crore per year ? Or imagine if you you are stuck there and fired from your job and get jobless for few months , will you be happier being jobless in US where you can explore yourself and all instead of India where you will be stuck at home and won't even be able to walk freely and comfortably alone on the streets.
I encountered a similar incident some Years back. This baba came to my car and told me to give some money and said that he will do some puja and give it back. I gave him Rs50 and he did something and returned it. He said give a higher amount- I gave Rs 100, he did something and returned it. Then he said give a bigger amount and I gave Rs500. Moment I handed over the money he put it in his mouth & acted as if he has swallowed it. I said give back the money and he said now it’s gone and walked off. In few mins I realised what shit happened with me and went after him. I told him give my money back else I am going to call the cops. He gave my money back and ran away.
the pollution, safety concerns as a woman, the constant lecherous stares, crumbling infrastructure, crawling traffic, low trust society where everyone is out to scam you, are not worth it.
Bhaii tu Delhi wala naii lagta... Bahr sse aya h na..... Kyu ki avg Delhi wala sannp ka gala pakad leta agar. Uske paise ko kisi ne touch bhi karlia hota... Maa Bhen ki gali deke pelta baba ko vo alag

New Delhi is characterized by crumbling infrastructure, poorly maintained roads, and severe traffic congestion. This leads to frustratingly long commute times, a general decline in the daily ease of living, and can be a significant source of stress for residents.
Bangalore is over populated anyways. You will be frustrated sooner or later.

road infrastructure, government corruption, hospitals are good if u hv money but not all, more than half of doctors are of OBC, SBC NT1-3 categories who became doctors on reservation than merit. The government municipal doesn’t directly help unless u bribe them in indirect ways or have political connections for water n any building issues. road fixing, potholes, etc. the roads are filthy n ppl die coz of bad roads n worst get late n have high BP coz of travelling 2-3-4 hours to travel to work n back…
The infrastructure here is a mess, the people don’t seem to care about civic sense, and the workplace culture is just plain awful.
From a mile high city to pot holes and corruption - good luck

New Delhi is plagued by chronic air pollution, with industrial plants burning garbage contributing to debilitating illnesses among residents. This environmental degradation poses a significant threat to the quality of life and any 'green' aspirations of a real estate project in the city.

how was delhi so clean and green back in 2011😮

My comparison for this is Delhi and while the pollution there is worse than Bangalore where you’re considering your move to, the air quality in Bangalore is DEFINITELY not better than Denver.

The professional environment in Indian cities is often described as highly competitive and demanding, with a poor work-life balance and prevalent office politics. Additionally, high-income earners face substantial tax burdens, which can significantly impact their overall financial well-being and job satisfaction.

Consider the corporate culture as well. The work culture is a lot worse in India. People arent just angry on streets, but in offices too.
the overall standards of living & the kind of entitlement people have & most important the work culture here is pathetic.
HR will act as if they pay you out of their own pocket. Many people don't keep personal and professional lives separate. They come to the office to gossip. Then go home and work till late at night in meetings with US teams. Apparently it's very common for teams & work colleagues to go to resorts and party together. Many people say they hate office politics, but all this gossip is feeder for office politics.
Taxes are major pain here, at higher income slab you literally work 5-6 months a yr for charity...37% taxes with all surcharges + 12% GST on almost everything and still get broken roads and bangalore traffic

Acquiring large residential properties, especially those with private outdoor spaces, in major Indian cities with tech job opportunities is prohibitively expensive. This can limit options for those seeking spacious living, with prices often exceeding those for comparable properties in other countries.
in India real estate prices is crazy, especially in cities with tech jobs, in no way I'll be able to afford a big house with a private yard and stuff in the city. If I don't live close to office, I will be spending hours of my day in commute. I have looked the house prices and god, my house here is bigger and costs way less
Tell the real estate guys you are returning from the US and the prices will suddenly beat even what you can get in Manhattan

Despite the presence of cultural events, some individuals find it difficult to build new, meaningful social circles in bustling Indian cities. This is often attributed to people being preoccupied with daily challenges like traffic and work, leaving less time for social connections.
My friends and I have a dinner party or hike or camping at least every other weekend !! Or squeeze quick girls' time with evening strolls with our dogs in the middle of the week. I think I will be frustrated myself in India and not want to meet anyone else and put myself together every day after dealing with so much chaos.
Making new friend and community in India is not going to be easy. Because life is difficult here, people are so busy with traffic and their own shenanigans. No one has a time for themselves, forget about someone else.
