PG rents in Bengaluru vary significantly by closeness to tech corridors. Areas near Outer Ring Road, Whitefield and Koramangala are pricier; northern suburbs like Yelahanka and Thanisandra offer better value. Most PGs provide meals, and co-living brands have a strong presence. Traffic congestion is a defining constraint, a 5-kilometre commute can take 45 minutes during peak hours. Choosing an area close to your office or along the metro line is more important in Bengaluru than in most Indian cities.
