Love Livin' in Pune, India: Your Complete City Guide

Pune is India's Oxford — a vibrant, youthful city of prestigious universities, a booming IT and manufacturing sector, and a pleasant highland climate that has made it one of India's most desirable cities to live and invest in.

Why Pune?

Pune is one of India's fastest-growing cities and consistently ranks among its most liveable. The city's combination of a large student population (home to some of India's most prestigious universities), a booming IT and manufacturing sector, a pleasant climate (at 560m elevation), and property prices that remain well below Mumbai — just 150km away — make it one of India's most compelling property markets.

Lifestyle & Neighbourhoods

Koregaon Park is Pune's most cosmopolitan neighbourhood — home to the famous Osho Ashram, a concentration of international restaurants, and a vibrant café culture. Kalyani Nagar and Viman Nagar are popular with IT professionals for their proximity to the airport and tech parks. Baner and Balewadi are rapidly developing western suburbs. Aundh and Kothrud are established residential areas popular with families. Camp (Cantonment) is Pune's historic British-era neighbourhood with wide tree-lined streets.
