Strategically located near key employment hubs, this area is a commuter's paradise, but it also faces the challenge of peak-hour traffic congestion. Nevertheless, the flip side of its nascent development is the promise of a growing dining, entertainment, and lifestyle scene, with exciting new restaurants, cafes, and attractions on the horizon.

I find Salt Lake City Bidhannagar to be one of the most well-planned and comfortable places to live in Kolkata. It provides a serene and clean atmosphere, making it perfect for families and professionals like me. The streets are broad, and the area is rich in parks, lakes, and greenery, offering a refreshing break from the typical urban chaos. Safety is well-managed with regular police patrols, making it one of the most secure neighborhoods. It has quality schools, hospitals, and shopping complexes like City Centre. Public transport, including buses, autos, and metros, shows good connectivity across Kolkata.

I feel that despite the good roads, traffic jams during working hours can be frustrating, particularly in sector 5. The cost of living is somewhat elevated compared to other parts of Kolkata, with increasing rents and property values due to rising demand. Certain parts of Salt Lake still face waterlogging during heavy rainfalls, although this has improved over the years. While the locality has many amenities, some areas have limited local markets, requiring travel to larger commercial hubs.

The area is very cleaned , hygienic and well maintained. The roads are properly cleaned and full of street light. It's a totally tech city so it's very easy to communicate with others like there is nearby airport ( Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose airport ) and nearest metro station ( salt Lake sector v) , so it's very easy. The lifestyle is very good because of modernization. There is also few picnic spots and children park. It's also good for higher college university education as there is many colleges and universities. It's actually totally job oriented area.

The main problem of this place is that it's really famous. So traffic is always a big problem in this place. Some places are really unhygienic.
