Best areas to live in Ahmedabad
Air, heat, flood and greenery compared across 56 areas · free public data
Air is the main story: a typical Ahmedabad area averages 52 µg/m³ of PM2.5 a year, and Dec–Feb pushes that to 65 µg/m³ — above India's daily limit of 60. Where you live matters: Kathwada (43 µg/m³) and Memnagar (54 µg/m³) are 11 µg/m³ apart.
Heat is a real factor, with around 165 hot or muggy days a year in a typical area and a hottest typical day near 46°C. The monsoon brings about 808 mm of rain. Only 5 of 56 areas fall inside the modelled river/coastal flood zone. Green cover within a short walk is very little of the land in a typical area (7%).
