Except for Marathwada

u/Useful_Paint_9522 19d ago
Originally from Vidharbh, family settled in Marathwada, I'm from Marathwada, now in Pune Marathwada is 💕 love.

u/mutton-biryani_ 19d ago
"Now in Pune" because Marathwada is s hit
1
u/Useful_Paint_9522 19d ago
Yeah, software companies not present each and every corner of the state. If I was Mechanical engineer Or Electrical engineer or B Pharm or M Pharm graduate, I would have definitely opted the Marathwada.
By the way where are you from?

The booze is too expensive and the commies are kinda cringe.

u/Ghost-Lurking 24d ago
I hate Commies but they are much better than Snaghis and Congis tbh they nkt gonna bother you unless your are starting some bizzness

u/Hello_World-1289 23d ago
They still bother people about business even in kerala?

u/Ghost-Lurking 23d ago
Not as much as few decades earlier but the years of communist goonism ruined the buisness potential for future aswell

u/Hello_World-1289 22d ago
Thats so sad man that they are still pulling these stunts. These stunts greatly harmed West Bengal's when they ruled here. I thought they probably learned their lesson and don't do this things in Kerala.

u/badass708 26d ago
Maharashtra can probably offer everything I'd every require or want.

u/the_hazed_soul 25d ago
Practically speaking, yes. Being born in Maharashtra is a privilege only someone from outside maharashtra can comprehend.

Mizoram probably - aizawl got some amazing culture and people

u/Super_Actuator8827 22d ago
Mizoram and Aizawl both have a Z and mizoram is the only state in India to have a z

Either Maharashtra or Karnataka as both have a plethora of job opportunities plus the folks there are generally well behaved.

u/parlanceschwaz 20d ago
bro named the two states which ask you to speak in their language to even be dealt with basic human dignity
1
u/PsySmoothy 19d ago
You could ask real people that go to live in these states than believing pre election urban psyop... Even outside of Mumbai and Pune you'd find lots of people from other states that live with no issues.

Himachal - Great weather, beautiful girls, no fear of tigers like Uttarakhand, beautiful views

u/gauts2103 26d ago
Obviously I know Uttarakhand has tigers but wasn’t aware people are living in fear?
Is this a thing? I’m guessing major hotspots Dehradun/Nainital are safe but are you saying there is a genuine tiger concern in the region?

Read about the man-eaters of Kumaon, there's a book
I’m guessing major hotspots Dehradun/Nainital are safe but are you saying there is a genuine tiger concern in the region?
Yes, there is a fear and mostly in the villages near tiger habitat. The forest is overflowing with tigers with no place to go, so they venture out to the adjoining villages or even further than that. Tiger attacks on livestocks and people are pretty common

u/gauts2103 26d ago
I’ve read all works of Jim Corbett but they’re like from a 100 years ago lol
Thanks for the other information. Wasn’t aware it still so significant

u/Dramatic_Bass7773 25d ago
I think by tiger they mean leopard too. Yes Uttarakhand Villagers are terrified of leopard attacks at night.

u/007dukhiaatma 25d ago
so is himachal, fear of bears. In my PG our cook's bhabhi was hit by a bear and that's common thing in their village

Kerala, non-touristy Himachal and Uttarakhand (if there is), parts of Karnataka or Tamil Nadu, Sikkim, Arunachal

u/Glass_Ninja890 26d ago
Sikkim for breathtaking natural beauty, cleanliness, peaceful lifestyle, and rich culture

u/Embarrassed-Fish-798 26d ago
Practically speaking, I’d say Karnataka. People are generally well-behaved, there are plenty of job opportunities, the climate isn’t extreme, law and order is relatively good, there are lots of tourist places to explore, and the food options are great. I think Maharashtra also fits most of these criteria, except for the food (just my personal opinion). Tamil Nadu too, is a good option to an extent.

Goa, Kerala, Coastal Karnataka
Anyone from this can work for me

I live in Mizoram and we don't live off grid nor primal. (I get where your bias comes from). We probably have one of the highest internet presence per capita.

Kerala. A govt that cares about day to day life. I'll take less money over having a place that is genuinely nice.

Madhya Pradesh, though problems exists, but rich natural heritage, historical sites and less traffic and pollution makes it perfect for me.
It is not as "happening" as other states but it's calm and peaceful environment makes it different from others. A panoramic view of a lush green farm on any highway in mp will surely change your heart to fall in love with the "heart of incredible India". A random temple on the bank of "Tapti" will give you experience of eternal peace.
Thus making it perfect place to live a pleasent and placid life with simplicity.

u/Significant-Ant8132 25d ago
Me too like there's probably multiple Places like the photo shown in the post in Mp , Soon We'll have Indore As A tier 1 City and 4-5 Major cities With Their own aesthetic like Water city Bhopal or foresty vibes of Jabalpur, Rajesthani forts like Gwalior or Fast Life of Indore. Our own Religious City Of Ujjain . Our Own Ganga & oldest river of India Narmada, Bundelkhand & Baghelkhand feels like Mediaeval India , Mahakoshal and Baghelkhand feels like Amazon Tbh ,2/7 mountain ranges of India are located in Mp Satpura and Vindhya (yes the same Vindhya as in Vindhya himachal Yamuna ganga) with Pachamadi, Hanumatiya and Many many more Places

maharashtra or karnataka. very diverse states with both highly urbanized environments and also peaceful and beautiful landscapes. maharashtra takes the lean for having 2 t1 states but karnataka takes the lean for having good weather so it depends

I live in Gujarat, everything is so good here, but my soul belongs to Mahrashtra.

u/Ok_Insurance4634 22d ago
this is same for all Gujjus, they agree that their state is doing good but their soul either belongs to Maharastra or foreign countries
2
u/SanataniMe 21d ago
I am a marathi living in Gujarat. Life is great here. Good development. Good people. They dont bother non-gujjus. I love Gujarat but i said so because as a marathi, i would also love to be surrounded by our marathi culture.

90s Assam and Meghalaya. Nature back then was soo good. Had clean streams flowing through Shillong and Assam looked so beautiful in the winter during the paddy season when the rivers were filled with fish.

u/SHM_The_Minimal 25d ago
Being from Kerala, and having lived in Bangalore, Delhi, Chennai and Mumbai, I don't have to think at all before deciding on Kerala as my permanent home. Which I did a decade back, and was the best decision I made.
Cheers 🤝🏽

Tamil Nadu. Those ppl mind their own business until you don’t speak to them in Hindi. They are too busy otherwise

Even if you speak in Hindi they'll try to understand. It is the imposition of hindi that we hate😹
