Eran Dwane is, for sure, one of the poshest areas in Pune. The streets are clean. The surroundings are filled with greenery. And it’s home to luxurious villas and bungalows. So yeah, you have to spend quite a fortune to rent or own a place here. But your life would be pretty sorted, you know. Except people would be confused when you say you stay at Eran Dwane. Which basically sounds like a random character that’s gonna be killed off in House of the Dragons.
So what is it with every area that ends with the word ‘park’ also happens to be posh? Well, that might just be a coincidence, but the property prices in Koregaon park are most definitely not. And one of the reasons the rent is so high is because the neighborhoods are full of greenery. The kind of greenery that actually makes you want to take a walk on Sunday morning and drop by the nearest place to get waffles. Imagine.
If the IT hub of Pune is what made the Pune that we know of today, then Hinjewadi has been the center of all that action. And despite it being the hotspot for working professionals, it’s relatively cheaper to afford living here. Most of the IT folks live here by sharing apartments. So if your workplace is located in and around Hinjewadi, then look no further than hunting for rental accommodation here.
Kothrud is one of the most in-demand areas in Pune. And that’s no surprise given it’s got a place in the Guinness Book of World Records as Asia’s fastest developing suburb. Thanks to the top corporate hubs and colleges nearby. Also, Kothrud is not your typical residential area. In fact, there are loads of low-key touristy places too. Like the Cycle museum of Vikram Pendse. So you can only imagine how cool of a locality Kothrud is.
Another one of the best places to live in Pune is Dhankawadi. Especially for students. And for good reason. The apartment rents are reasonable. The area’s well-connected both by bus and auto rickshaws. And most of the good colleges are located pretty close to it. Plus, like every other student area, Dhankwadi’s got a lot of ‘adda’ spots too. The kind where you and your gang order plates upon plates of maggi and then sweet talk the owner uncle to pay it the next day.
