Best areas to live in Jamshedpur

Air, heat, flood and greenery compared across 19 areas · free public data

Air is the main story: a typical Jamshedpur area averages 59 µg/m³ of PM2.5 a year, and Dec–Feb pushes that to 80 µg/m³ — above India's daily limit of 60. Where you live matters: Dugdha (55 µg/m³) and Sakchi (62 µg/m³) are 7 µg/m³ apart.

Heat is a real factor, with around 126 hot or muggy days a year in a typical area and a hottest typical day near 45°C. The monsoon brings about 1,216 mm of rain. None of the 19 areas we compared sit inside the modelled river/coastal flood zone. Green cover within a short walk is nearly half of the land in a typical area (53%).
