What to factor in beyond rent
- Job market depth: how many alternative employers exist if your current one shuts a team? Tier-1 metros win on this.
- Career velocity: if you change jobs every 18-24 months, in-person network density still matters.
- Family proximity: own family, partner's family, kids' schooling — often the deciding factor.
- Climate: Mumbai/Chennai/Kolkata humidity vs Bengaluru/Pune dry. Affects health + AC bills.
- Commute math: Niptao's cost numbers assume central neighborhoods. If you live further out, add ₹3,000-6,000/mo for commute.
- One-time relocation cost: ₹40,000-1,50,000 (movers, deposit, furnishing) — recover from monthly arbitrage in 4-12 months typically.
