How do I find a place to live in New Delhi?
We asked expats how they chose their neighborhood and found a place to live. They answered:
"One of the best ways to find a place to live in New Delhi is to use online resources such as rental websites, classifieds, and real estate agents. You can also search for local newspapers and magazines that list available properties. Additionally, you can ask friends and family who live in the area for recommendations.
