i completely agree with you. i stayed in bangalore in 2 yrs back for 5 months. those day was horrible for me. i stayed in jeeven beema nagar (one of the good area in bagalore (??????), this bangalorian thinks). i paid Rs.8000 per month for ugly shit house. in Rs.8000, we can do many things in other small cities. i decided to quit bagalore because of poor infrastucture, high living cost, poor standard of living. i dont mind to pay money for quality things, but spend your money like stupid in bangalore is big mistake.
my advice to all people is, if you want quality of life, relocate yourself to Tier III cities, (where you can find quality of life much better than bangalore). so you can save the money & plan your future.

You are right, as I feel maybe because I am in Bangalore....and IT pros and other pros feel the heat of inflation too much.....since we already staying in a hyped place...where the ppl think IT pros are stashing away crores in their banks....and the landlord...charging huge amounts( if u a non-kannadiga) u pay a high price....auto-rickshaws charge u abnormally high if they get a hint u r from outside.... I dont understand why does the petrol price in bangalore is highest among all cities..... I surely am trying to move to tier 2/3 cities...as I am not looking for luxury....but a good quality of life...

hay abhijit, i have been there in bangalore for more then 6 yrs.. and i found that everything in the city is deteriorating day by day.. roads, climet, their behaviour to outsiders, garbage and its making everything to make people not to stay there.. may be it should not be told.. but specially people's behaviour is really bad.. if u talk in hindi.. they behave like u r an alien.. they always take more money from u if u cant speak their language.. they always balme u for the deterioration of the city.. there are very few cultured people u can find on the road (bcoz good, cultured and really educated people of bangalore usually dont walk on the road or travel in the bus).. the bus conductor will always try not to give u back the change.. they ask for ticket as we all are keen to travel without ticket (so funny.. what they think of others).. apart from that.. still there is a good Kannadiga culture.. few people are really gentle n well behaved.. great combination of different cultures(cosmopolitan) IT is great.. but untill the common people (may be 80-90%) will not change their mental structure towards other people, being a good city also bangaluru will have the word "Bangaluru sucks" ..sorry to say
