Guindy, Chennai Reviews

Kaveri
Tenant
Positive

Being a tenant at Guindy definitely gives the impression that it is Chennai's centre. Because the suburban railroad and Metro station are nearby, my daily life is quite comfortable as my travel to the IT parks is really quick. With clearly marked police patrolling and well-lit roads, I also feel very safe, which is a major benefit. The Guindy National Park just nearby is what I like the most. A bit of a green respite just outside the metropolis. The neighbourhood is welcoming, and all I need from hospitals to major shopping centres is readily available. The only area that could be better is the peak-hour traffic bottleneck, especially close to Kathipara Junction, which significantly slows down movement.

I advise customers to use Guindy. With great road, railroad, and metro connections, it is located in south central Chennai. Major hospitals, leading schools, corporate offices, and Guindy National Park all Nearby IT and industrial centres, supporting constant rental demand. Professionals and students are drawn to closeness to Anna University and corporate parks. Malls, restaurants and stores are quite nearby. Apartment characteristics here demonstrate steady appreciation and provide usually three to four percent rental returns. Buyers have great long-term worth and straightforward resale. One place for development is more family friendly community areas and play areas in certain regions. Buyers will find Guindy a secure long term investment as a result of this.

Positives: Being a tenant in Guindy makes travelling anywhere easy because of its amazing connectivity. Having the metro station, train station, and airport all nearby makes things simple. Since it's a significant commercial centre, job possibilities abound. It has a refined look thanks to the famous colleges Anna University and IIT and IIT. Moreover, I get a perfect little nature getaway from the city rush whenever I need it, due to the nearby Guindy National Park.

Negative

Negatives: The traffic jams at rush hour are very bad, which can make navigating the main roads quite difficult. Parking spots are quite constrained and challenging to come across, particularly in the busy commercial areas.

Positive

Positive: Its mid-town location and Guindy Metro facility were the reasons I selected it. It was a transport center with proximity to the airport. Its proximity to educational institutions such as Anna University and hospitals such as Sri Balaji Hospital facilitated easy living. I always had the picturesque bliss of Guindy National Park at hand every time. Not inexpensive, yes, but there were varied residential choices.

Negative

Negative: But the intense population density at times gave the area a very cramped and always crowded appearance. For the residents, one further problem was the scarcity of proper well maintained green areas, making it hard to locate really peaceful places. Another exasperation was the shortage of adequate parking space around shopping centers.

Positives: I have railway, bus, and the Metro all in one place, which is very good connectivity. I thoroughly enjoy the Guindy National Park in the vicinity. It is a welcome spot of green in this industrial area of Chennai. It is safe here, and with major hospitals like Sri Balaji Hospital in the vicinity, it feels secure. Though it is a bit pricey, the convenience is unbeatable.

Negative

Negatives: The heavy traffic volume on Anna Salai during rush hours. The other big problem is the few available parking slots, particularly along commercial complexes. The high human density also creates a sense of congestion, and the overall absence of wide-open recreational grounds is apparent.

Positive

Positives: Being close to the IT corridor and having the airport, metro, and railway station so close by is extremely convenient. We also have great schools and hospitals around, which is a big relief regarding safety and convenience. Overall, I have a very good experience here because all that I require is always within a stone's throw away.

Negative

Negatives: But the rush hour traffic is a complete nightmare. This is a very populated area, and therefore it is a big hassle to park. I am worried about every day. The worst part is that there is not much greenery here compared to other parts of the city. I believe the city ought to seriously fix this problems.

Guindy has been good to me and my family. The national park and other attractions like the Madras Race Club are situated nearby, while the location makes it easy to access many parts of Chennai quite easily. Also, the metro and railway access is convenient from the locality, while social infrastructure is also very nice. The property rates are fair in my opinion, while the green and clean nature of the area is something that I really appreciate.

Negative

I only wish to mention that the roads in some parts should be improved. Sudden potholes or bumps only lead to vehicle damages, in my opinion.

I think that Guindy is the perfect area to settle down and raise your family. This location has a lot of potential for the future, considering how the metro and railway networks are available here. The social infrastructure has been put in place, including education, healthcare, markets, etc. The national park is the main highlight of the area, and many people come down to see it every now and then. This adds a lot of greenery to the place, making it a unique option in the property market. Also, parking slots are hard to find, but that’s a minor inconvenience, when you consider all the benefits of staying in this neighbourhood.

Personally I love staying in Guindy; the connectivity is excellent, in terms of the roads, railway, metro networks, etc. There is a well-developed system of social amenities, including nearby shopping centers, markets, schools, and hospitals. I also think we are lucky to stay so close to the Madras Race Club and the famous Guindy National Park. These are excellent in terms of ensuring more greenery for the neighborhood. The location is very central, in my opinion, and makes commuting a breeze in most cases. However, one thing that needs to be looked at, is the parking space availability. It is very difficult to find a proper parking slot when you are out in the area on weekdays.

Positives: I've found Guindy to be a great central area. I think its strongest point is the fabulous transportation connectivity, with the metro station, railway station, and airport nearby. I have to say that having these large IT and industrial parks such as the DLF IT Park in the vicinity is great job scope. And with the likes of IIT and Anna University here, it's like a live and secure area.

Negative

Negatives: Still, I believe there are sure disadvantages I have to endure. I noticed that the area experiences severe traffic congestion on Anna Salai. I am disappointed with the scarcity of dedicated green spaces and parks available within the area compared to others. Finally, I must add that the high population density makes the area quite crowded at times.

You will love the charming vibe of Guindy. The locality is home to a very friendly community, and I like the fact that they are very helpful as well. The IRR is the main lifeline for the neighbourhood, along with the GST Road and Anna Salai as well. This is possible by accessing the Kathipara Junction nearby. The metro station is the biggest plus point for the Green and Blue lines, while the railway station also links easily to the suburban network. There is also easy access to the airport.

Negative

I want the roads to be smooth and free from potholes in this area.

See, Guindy is pretty interesting as a locality, with its quaint charm. It’s actually a well-developed area, something that I found out after I moved into the neighbourhood. Now, in this case, the SIDCO Industrial Estate is situated nearby, making Guindy a forever-preferred hub for those working in this zone. It was the same story for my father as well. And we have always benefited from easy access to the Chennai airport, which is only within 10-12 km from the place. One of our favourite childhood hangouts was the Guindy National Park. It is a peaceful oasis in the city that you will fall in love with. I only want the water supply issue to be addressed promptly

I've been staying and working here in Guindy for years now, and I am sure to inform my clients this is Chennai's real corporate and transit core. Its strategic positioning serves as the city's entrance, providing us with unrivaled connectivity with the Metro station and Kathipara Junction connecting everything so elegantly; the airport lies just a mere 10 km away. You have big IT centers such as Olympia Tech Park in close proximity, ensuring great job scope and tenant demand. We have fairly green environments and well-lit, wide main roads with new developments continuously driving investment. It's a combination of mid-range and high-end homes with high potential. It's truly top-of-the-line here. But we certainly experience massive traffic jams every day and require improved measures for the endemic shortage of public parking lots.

Guindy is a little away from the main buzz of Chennai, but that’s the way I like it. The Kathipara Junction is the main intersection, where you will find links to the Inner Ring Road, Anna Salai, and the GST Road. We have the railway station here (suburban line) and the metro station for the blue and green lines, while the international airport is only 10 km away. So, connectivity-wise, there are many benefits that I get from living here. Also, the SIDCO Industrial Estate is nearby, where I work, and the Guindy National Park is also the pride of the area. I have spotted many rare birds here, while the Snake Park is also another attraction for visitors, along with the Madras Race Club. Road maintenance and water supply shortages are two issues that need to be fixed; otherwise the area is pretty good to live in.

I have been residing in Guindy and the neighborhood really lives up to its name of being the 'Gateway of Chennai.' We have the Metro, Railway Station, and Airport all close by, making it easy to commute. The Guindy National Park nearby is a verdant haven amidst the midst of our active corporate and IT zone, encompassing Olympia Tech Park. The good business development here guarantees that property value continues to rise, making it very affordable in the future. We feel extremely secure, and the main roads are also well maintained. We desperately need the authorities to look into the old stormwater drainage system, as water stagnation is a common problem during the heavy monsoon months.

Guindy is a well-established locality in Chennai. I have lived here for several years, and I have never faced any connectivity problems. The metro station is a major connectivity hub on the Blue Line, and of course, the suburban railway network and major roads ensure good convenience as well. The Olympia Technology Park and the SIDCO Industrial Estate are both nearby, and in fact, most of the stretch is home to several industrial estates and factories. The Guindy-Mount Poonamallee High Road is where a large part of the development is occurring at present. I also love the Guindy National Park here for its lush greenery, while the Madras Race Club is a key attraction here as well. The only thing the authorities should improve is the congestion along the entire stretch.

Positive

Positives: Relocating to Guindy was the most excellent career choice I've ever made. The area is really the Gateway to Chennai. Guindy Metro Station and Kathipara junction making my travel to Olympia Tech Park such a breeze. It's an IT and industrial boom place, so job opportunities are always robust. The Guindy National Park close at hand for a green getaway.

Negative

Negatives: My sole worry is the intense peak hour traffic jam and consequent air pollution can be problematic. I think the Greater Chennai Corporation has to do more on maintenance. Improved stormwater drainage so that water does not log during monsoons, immediate repair of the internal roads in the industrial area, and more systematic public parking facilities.

Sohan
Owner
Positive

Positives: I am an owner in Guindy and I simply adore the vibe of this place. Its biggest plus point is the Guindy Metro, the Railway Station, and Chennai International Airport are all within reach. And being a commercial hub with IT parks and having institutions like Anna University and IIT Madras close by. We also have lovely natural landscapes like Guindy National Park for a relaxed weekend getaway.

Negative

Negatives: A few issues in this lively neighborhood certainly require local government attention. Population density is so high at times that the neighborhood at times feels extremely crowded and a little cramped. The neighbourhood lacks smaller, nicely manicured green spaces scattered throughout the community for daily use.

Positives: I resided in Guindy as a formal resident, and I enjoyed its strategic location. It enjoyed great connectivity through roads, metro and railway, which made traveling across Chennai convenient. The proximity of the Guindy National Park provided me with precious green relief. I also enjoyed the proximity to premier educational institutions and renowned hospitals. The blend of residential and commercial areas made the locality vibrant.

Negative

Negatives: Traffic on Kathipara and major junctions was chaotic. Inner roads were poorly maintained and potholed. Drainage was poor, leading to waterlogging during rains. Parking was scarce in congested areas. Waste disposal was usually messy. These four aspects required improvement in Guindy for me to feel comfortable.

Being a resident here in Guindy for several years, I can assure you it is still the best hub in Chennai. You just cannot get better connectivity, having the Metro, the central railway station, and the International Airport within minutes' reach is simply worth everything for any working individual or family. It is a real powerhouse, with prominent institutions such as Anna University coupling with large nearby IT parks, guaranteeing robust rental and employment markets. Guindy provides great lifestyle convenience and plenty of properties. My only recommendations are that we require improved traffic management during peak hours and additional designated parking to cater to growth.

Puja
Owner
Positive

Positives: The area boasts unmatched multi-modal connectivity, making life so convenient. I enjoy world-class connectivity with Metro, Railway Station, and Airport close to where I live. The learning environment from places like IIT Madras brings in prestige, and the Guindy National Park gives an absolutely unique and serene urban green oasis amidst the city.

Negative

Negatives: I strongly feel that this sector is superb, but there are some things that should be addressed to realise its true potential. The poor stormwater drainage system leads to horrible waterlogging on most of the internal roads during the monsoon, which badly impacts mobility. Moreover, the city needs to tackle the absence of dedicated public parking in commercial pockets and create more accessible community green lung spaces in order to improve our high population density.

Sandip
Tenant
Positive

Positives: I have to say, it's a pleasant place to reside. The area is well-connected through the Guindy Metro and railway stations. Proximity to major employment centers like Olympia Tech Park and Guindy Industrial Estate is an added bonus. The proximity of IIT Madras is the cherry on top. The greenery of Guddy National Park and the refurbished Guindy Children's Park is now a favorite spot for relaxation for everyone.

Negative

Negatives: Yet, there are some areas that need improvement. Even though the area is well-located, some of the internal roads need improvement. Drainage in some areas overflows during rains. Second, although there are a number of restaurants, the diversity can be improved to accommodate different cuisines.

Positives: I really loved my stay living in this area. Its proximity to the Guindy Industrial Estate ensured there were always job opportunities galore, which was a big attraction. As a past resident, I was always awed by the seamless connectivity, with the Guindy Metro and Railway Station being at one's doorstep. I would frequently escape to the serene Guindy National Park for an instant shot of nature, and the presence of institutes such as IIT Chennai added to the sheen. Though I enjoyed residing here, I found certain internal residential streets close to older apartments to be very loud owing to pockets of industry. Also, the neighborhood certainly needed improved steps to address the scarce greenery beyond the National Park.

Positives: When my family purchased our apartment complex here, the whole thing was an investment in place, and Guindy did not disappoint. It is the most centrally located area in Chennai. I particularly like the convenience of having the Metro station and Guindy Railway Station nearby, which makes my office commute each day easy. Also, large institutions like Anna University and the nearby IT parks offer great stability. I am very safe with hospitals such as Sri Balaji just around the corner. Although I enjoy the convenience, the flow of traffic during rush hour at the junction is quite draining. They need to seriously rework the bottlenecks and minimise the air pollution due to the massive number of vehicles.

Owner
Positive

Positives: As I have a property here, I can safely assert that Guindy cannot be beaten when it comes to location. The area has unprecedented multimodal connectivity through the Metro, Rail, and Airport. That we are a key IT and industrial center at the very center of Chennai means the price of my property continues to increase.

Negative

Negatives: But commuting makes me so angry often! The infamous Kathipara Junction is a huge pain point from awful peak-hour traffic jams. Worse, when I approach the main road from the old industrial estate, the potholed internal roads seem always under repair, and lorries are parked all over. There was a huge heap of uncollected rubbish close to the tech park gate last month because there weren't enough proper bins.

Rupa
Tenant
Positive

Positives: It was the accessibility that won me over for Guindy. The area, with the metro, railway station, and bus stand here, is great for commuting in and around Chennai. Being a renter who works in the nearby IT park, the access to work is just right, and I like the combination of good schools and large commercial areas like The Grand Mall nearby.

Negative

Negatives: My grumpiness is limited to the local living conditions. The largest drawback is the absolute congestions and absence of real green areas. Apart from the Guindy National Park, which is gigantic. Second, street parking right next to my building is a complete nightmare during the weekends when everybody is out. But really, the location's ease of convenience trumps these little day-to-day annoyances.

Madhabi
Former resident
Positive

Strengths: Having lived in Guindy for all those years really reinforced the notion that it was the original, inner city of Chennai. The locality having the metro, bus stand, and railway station all there meant that I could reach anywhere with ease, and the fact that the key IT parks and the top-notch institutions like IIT and Anna University were nearby made it a really top-end location.

Negative

Negatives: In spite of the advantageous location, residing there was not without its own set of hassles. As it is such a thick commercial and residential area, the large number of people occupying the space made the whole place intensely crowded. Parking space was a perpetual nightmare. Additionally, the area had no large spaces of greenery where people could relax. Finally, the rental price for even a modest flat was quite steep.

Anurag
Owner
Positive

Positives: It has actually become the center of Chennai to me. The greatest victory is connectivity; the Metro and Kathipara flyover ensure that it's possible to reach the airport or Anna Salai incredibly efficiently. It's the ultimate central point, hence my property value has skyrocketed, being at the doorstep of the industrial and IT hubs. And the Guindy National Park is a wonderful lung space here.

Negative

Negatives: But there are a few things that stand out. The expense of keeping a house here, particularly property taxes, seems unbearably high these days. Secondly, in the event of a harsh monsoon, waterlogging still occurs rather rapidly in the older service roads because the stormwater drainage is poor. We badly need additional public parking; it is a real headache to maintain a second car.

I was quite happy in Guindy with my extended family nearby and the lovely roads and layouts. It’s overall very well planned, and the Blue Line metro is a big plus point to reach many parts of the city. There is a big IT crowd here, working at the multiple business parks in and around the area. There are colleges, shops, and also green spaces like the Guindy National Park. One good thing is that the airport is only about 10 km away.

Negative

One thing I was unhappy about was mainly the poor road conditions. This was not acceptable in such a well-developed layout.

Jayanti
Former resident

Positives: Guindy was where I was living for a short while after college. I truly say, the connectivity was a savior. Being a major transit hub, having the Guindy Metro and Railway Station within walking distance made commuting within Chennai extremely easy. I also enjoyed the closeness of the Guindy National Park for a quick fix of nature, and being close to the Guindy Industrial Estate meant job prospects were always at hand. Negatives: But the location was surely imperfect, which caused me to eventually vacate. The number one issue was the severe traffic jams on the main roads at rush hour that caused intra-local movement to be painfully slow. Another one is, I discovered that some of the internal roads in the vicinity of the residential pockets experienced poor drainage and waterlogging during heavy rains.

Positives: We have the metro station, suburban train, buses and NH roads all around, hence commuting is easy. Good schools, hospitals, restaurants, shopping malls are all within radius. Also, green elements such as Guindy National Park, racecourse open spaces soften up the city's busy vibe. IT sector, with proximity to tech parks and jobs centers like Olympia Tech Park makes Guindy highly desirable. Negatives: The traffic snarls are a pain, particularly peak hour snarls around Guindy station, Industrial Estate and major junctions. It increases commute time and stress. In addition, civic infrastructure in certain areas is a problem of work roads potholed, bad drainage during rains, waste and garbage disposal problems in older or industrial areas.

Ishaan
Tenant

Positives: I have rented an apartment close to the Guindy locality for a short stint, and though it's chaotic, I love the sheer strategic benefit. It's literally Chennai's transit hub with both the Guindy Railway and Metro rail stations literally here. It makes commuting within the city seamlessly surreal. The preponderant presence of the industrial complex and surrounding IT parks also translates to employment opportunities literally at my doorstep. Negatives: In spite of the marvelous connectivity, several things actually irritate me. Constant heavy traffic jam around the main junction is tense and noisy. Seasonal problems such as waterlogging in heavy rains are a real menace to mobility. Moreover, property taxes and rentals are significantly greater than neighboring areas, and most of the internal residential roads have elderly, narrower road infrastructure.

Hema
Owner

Positives: My family has owned land here for years, and I can say with certainty that Guindy's location is a fantastic long-term value. I simply adore the fact that the Guindy Metro and Railway Station are practically right at my doorstep, allowing me to commute to Olympia Tech Park daily with lightning speed. The sheer proximity to the airport and major institutional nodes simply gives this place that fabulous commercial buzz of South Chennai. Negatives: But even as a contented owner, there are two striking negatives. First, the principal junction is a real bottleneck, and peak-hour traffic jams are a daily struggle. And secondly, I've noticed that the ageing drainage system is particularly faltering in certain residential areas. It is causing manifest waterlogging during heavy monsoon spells.

Positives: Guindy is a great place to live, with its well-planned layouts. I personally appreciate the metro connectivity through the Blue line. Also, there are several IT parks and hubs here, including Olympia, Ascendas, Ambit, and many others. I actually work nearby and live in the same neighborhood. That was my main factor for purchasing a property here. Also, the overall connectivity and lifestyle were appealing enough to buy. Many top colleges in the locality are another USP and also the lovely Guindy National Park. Trust me, you will love exploring it on the weekends. Negatives: I found the property cost a little high, but if you want connectivity benefits, then you will have to bear with it.

Priya
Former resident

Positives: I enjoyed central Guindy was so many big roads such as Anna Salai, GST Road, for easy driving. The metro station within the vicinity ensured that I could easily board public transport. Also, the railway station, bus stand, autos were all nearby. The Guindy National Park was more like a green lung in the middle of the city. Apart from that, there were some good schools, hospitals, IT areas (such as Olympia Tech Park) within walking distance. Negatives: Traffic congestions were bad near inter-sheets, particularly around Kathipara. Metro was fine, but sometimes buses or feeder buses were less frequent. Noise and pollution levels were high, parking was tough, roads are slim finding a proper flat.

Souvik
Tenant

Positives: I am a fairly new tenant in this place, but I adore Guindy because of its strategic positioning. It is really the core of Chennai's transport network. You have the Guindy Metro, the Railway Station, and the bus terminus within minutes, and the airport is just so close. With its proximity to major IT parks and institutions such as Anna University, the area is professional and convenient. Also, having Guindy National Park close by is great for getting a little bit of nature. Negatives: Driving through Anna Salai during working hours is a nightmare and results in incessant honking and pollution. Further, property to lease is costly here, and in all honesty, the neighborhood could do with more peaceful, open green areas aside from the National Park to manage the high population density.

Anindita
Owner

Positives: Moving into Guindy as a resident has been great. It literally is the hub of Chennai. The biggest attraction for me is the amazing transportation network, which makes travelling to any area of the city really convenient. And then there's the Chennai International Airport just 6 km away. Guindy is also one of the biggest commercial and IT parks, with parks around it such as Guindy National Park and reputed educational organisations such as IIT Chennai and Anna University. Negatives: Conversely, living in such a desirable area has the drawback of high-density living. For an older, commercial neighbourhood, there are few areas of dedicated park space compared to other neighbourhoods. Due to the population density and the commercial character of the area, parking spaces are typically not easy to come by.

Subhadra
Owner

Positives: I am awarding Guindy five stars because, as an owner, the place is just unsurpassable for investment stability and property value. As a major commercial and industrial hub the Thiru Vi Ka Estate and major IT parks guarantee that there is always high rental demand, which is precisely what you need! We have the metro, the central railway station, and Anna University itself in the vicinity. My investment has been solid as a rock due to this strong foothold. It's wonderful to live here as well, since everything is right next to us. Negatives: If I had to say one small negative thing, it's just the traffic jam close to the main roads at rush hour, but that's to be expected for such a central, high-traffic spot.

Tenant

Positives: I wake up to the blend of city and green. I can walk to Guindy National Park for a morning walk and it feels like really the lung of the area. I enjoy having the Guindy metro and railway nearby, and I can easily go to the airport and Anna University, so traveling and errands are convenient. I enjoy having malls and hospitals nearby, which make life easy. Negatives: I do encounter actual hassles, however. I see heavy traffic and noise near Kathipara and GST Road that tries my patience daily, and I've encountered waterlogging during heavy rains that impedes travel. I feel that some areas are overly commercialised, such as parking is constrained and local roads may be dusty due to ongoing construction. I wouldd rate Guindy three star.

Tirtha
Former resident

Positives: I stayed in Guindy for two years and still recall the early morning walks to the race course and the rapid metro trips to the office. The Guindy metro and railway facilitate easy travel, and the airport is a mere drive. There are large offices and tech parks such as Olympia, a decent mall (Phoenix on the next block), along with Guindy National Park nearby for some actual patch of green. There were shops, hospitals and coaching centers all within my flat's proximity. Negatives: Kathipara and the intersection points are very crowded and noisy during peak hour, and weekends seemed short when I used to travel to work. Since it is a busy business center, some areas lack parking spaces, and street noise is such that you sacrifice quietness for convenience.

Anusuya
Owner

Positives: I purchased my house in Guindy years ago, and I still feel blessed that I discovered it, a scarce combination of greenery and city. I like Guindy National Park, the Snake Park and the refurbished Children's Park nearby, and I frequently walk to the adjacent Anna University and the industrial park for chores. I travel to the Guindy metro and railway station every week, and I come to the airport in around 12–15 km by road. I see malls, hospitals and quality schools in drives that are short, and I find constant demand from professionals, students and families. Hence resale and rent are sustainable. Negatives: I do advise purchasers that these prices are a bit higher than in most of Chennai areas, so I advise them to plan their expenses accordingly.

Soumyadeep
Real estate agent

Positives: I consider Guindy a great combination of business and residence. I envision large commercial hubs, Anna University complex and Guindy Industrial Estate nearby, so work is within reach. I see Guindy National Park and Children's Park offering scarce patches of green in the city. I ride the Guindy metro and local train for convenient commutes, and I explain to clients the Kathipara/Anna Salai connects make everything accessible. I see demand remain consistent with mixed housing ranging from ancient flats to new developers' schemes. I honestly say it is great place for investors and families. Negatives: I advise purchasers that the industrial pockets and older flats surrounding the area can translate to periodic noise or low pollution issues.

Positives: Guindy is well-connected through and through and has plenty of amenities. I have been living here for so many years, and this location does have everything around it. I appreciate that Anna University and IIT are nearby. The Guindy National Park provides some greenery in the midst of the city, and I take a walk there on weekends. From my apartment, metro, railway station, and even the airport are just a stone's throw away. Forum Vijaya and Palladium malls are nearby, and there are lots of offices and IT parks here too, so work and business premises are always nearby. Negatives: The only thing I find difficult is the limited parking in many busy lanes. Otherwise, Guindy feels complete.

Positives: This locality is very convenient for work and daily use. It is near IT and commercial centres such as Olympia Tech Park, Tidel Park, and Chennai Trade Centre. Educational institutions such as KC High, Cambridge and Army Public School and many hospitals are in proximity. Metro and bus connectivity make commuting and errands easy. Parks such as Guindy National Park provide a nice place for morning walks. Negatives: The areas are congested with high population density in some parts, and there are few green spaces compared to other places.
