Best areas to live in Surat

Air, heat, flood and greenery compared across 26 areas · free public data

Air is the main story: a typical Surat area averages 50 µg/m³ of PM2.5 a year, and Nov–Jan pushes that to 75 µg/m³ — above India's daily limit of 60. Air varies little between areas — under 5 µg/m³ separates the cleanest from the most polluted.

Heat is a real factor, with around 133 hot or muggy days a year in a typical area and a hottest typical day near 45°C. The monsoon brings about 1,542 mm of rain. 42% of the 26 areas we compared sit inside the modelled river/coastal flood zone. Green cover within a short walk is very little of the land in a typical area (9%).
