Yes for Bangalore's climate, greenery, people(peace loving, atmosphere(for enjoyment), safety(can freely roam on the streets at even 3 in the n8).
No for traffic(infrastructure). Dats the only problem i guess. D govt is at work with it by the Metro rail and the BIA connectivity.
Anyone begs 2 differ?????????

Perhaps it would help if we understood what were are actually comparing here. After travelling around the world, Ive realised one undisputable fact: India is by far one of the worst countries to live in despite its growing economy and eradication of much of its poverty. Comparing Bangalore to any other city in India is like comparing rotten eggs with rotten apples..not much to choose from. I havent quite understood why we Indians cannot manage to keep our cities clean and have some civic sense, when some of the poorest places around the world have done better.

Bangalore may have thousand problems, but one thing i exprienced living in bangalore for 5 years. You will eventually love this city somehow. May be because of the people.

Sometimes best to live sometimes worst to live.

No if you people would have visited Chandigarh u really cant say that. Banglore is where near chandigarh. If doubtful pls kindly have a visit.

There is no doubt about that.Bangalore is the best city in India but the floating population is spoiling this beautiful place.

This is for sure that bangalore or bengaluru is not the best city or place to live in india.i support my argument by saying that the most prevailing problem there is the communication gap between the regional people and the the migrants.though hindi is our national lanuage..they are not ready to speak it...so how can a north india or non english speaking person settle there..whereas mumbai and other metros dn't create such issues...nd ya..its very costly as well

Since last one year i am in Bangalore, as compared to Mumbai i would rate Bangalore in terms of climate the best but compared to traffic it is much worse or i can say it is a Disaster..at least Mumbai there is local train an option..i know it is crowded bt however somehow u can manage..but here full public transport is depended on BMTC bus which is never on time..the metro project which is going is not at all connecting the prime area..& progress of work is very slow..God save Bangalore during rain..Bangalore is been saved b'cos of Trees which is now been uprooted some for widening roads or some for metros..I think Bangalore Beauty lies in Trees which if it is not there..it is going to be worst in terms of climate also as it is not surrounded by seas like Mumbai..Compared with Mumbai as Bangalore most of the area is hold by Government offices, Defence & other Public Sector companies like HAL,BEl etc it is maintaining its Greenary which is not there in Mumbai as most of the land is hold by Private company..So Bangalore has an edge over Mumbai if the Trees are not uprooted..

Certainly NOT. I am living in this since one year and already thinking of shifting to Mysore. I could not tolerate the traffic jams and this is one of the reasons for my proposal toshift.

Bangalore is one of the best cities in India right now..Most tier-II cities are better than our overcrowded, over populated, over polluted metros.
Mumbai might have adequate transport but it is highky polluted, the sea is like a sewage dumping place, black oil like thing covers your feet in case you decide to walk down Juhu beach...WEstern expressway a 10 plus lane road is blocked with traffic on weekdays, and one has to tarvel fr 1 plus hour in local train, in rush hour/crush hour from borivilli to churchgate ;the people are nice,the weather is bad..

Delhi is hellish to say the least, power cuts in summer, with extreme heat (45 degrees), no water and extreme cold in winter...add to that the roads which are going ffrom bad to worse, the lack of security after dark and the extreme distance that one traverses. Then there are the people. Unlike Bombay Delhi is not for the middle class, it is for the high class, who drive in their ac car and are not bothered about who or what comes beneath their wheels. Callous is the name of the game. The only good thing is the metro, a new addition...

Bangalore by comparison is as yet not suffering from all the ills that the metros are suffering from. Add to that the excellent weather and the prospect of great connectivity thru the metro, and bangalore is definitely one of the better places to stay for all the benefits of a high quality of life that it has to offer.Add to that the people, the auto guys might be bad but the people are pretty nice and well mannered.

Bangalore has all the ingredients to be one of the best for a long time but all of us have to make sure that the green cover and the lakes are not lost under th e rising concrete, otherwise it might just go down the metro way...
