Introduction:

Indore, a busy city tucked in the heart of Madhya Pradesh, has undergone a tremendous shift in recent years. As a dynamic hub of business, education, and culture, the city has drawn a continuous flow of migrants seeking better possibilities. However, this fast urbanization has also increased the desperate need for suitable housing, underlining the complexity of the housing issue in Indore.

Overview of the Housing Situation in Indore:

Indore's housing environment is characterized by a wide mix of formal and informal settlements, reflecting the city's socio-economic complexity. Formal housing sectors, encompassing government-sponsored efforts and private real estate endeavours, serve to a broad range of income categories, ranging from economically disadvantaged neighbourhoods to wealthy people. Despite these efforts, a considerable section of the population remains in informal settlements, contending with bad living conditions and lack access to essential services.
