5 reasons that makes Delhi a better place to live than Mumbai

One of the most popular war based on geography is here once again. Before we get started, an important disclaimer that this article is not intended to harm the sentiment/feeling/opinion of others. So, be it the Mumbai Indians or the Delhi Daredevils, they think that they supersede each other in different spheres of life. Mumbaikars are known for their night life whereas Delhiwallas are known for many more things than just night life. Here are the five reasons which makes Delhi better than Mumbai.

1. Education

When it comes to the Education, no city in India even Mumbai can beat Delhi. The capital city has the best University in the world along with few best Institutes like IIT Delhi, IIFT, MDI, FMS. One can get the best exposure in Delhi for a variety of education ranging from Engineering to Theatre. However, Mumbai has a lot to give when it comes to jobs, but Delhi is the synonym for education in India.

2. Food

Believe me, one just cannot survive life on Vadapav and Dabeli, one needs variety. The city of Delhi is largely dominated by Punjabis which makes it a heaven for foodies. One can find the best of Paranthas, Chat, Butter Chicken, Chole Bhatoore only in Delhi. Having Mughal roots, Delhi is known for its Kebabs, Biryani, Nihari as well. One may find these food items in Mumbai as well, but one is not going the same taste for sure.

3. Cost of Living

Here the discussion is not about the cost of house/space because both the cities are costly in terms of purchasing a house of your own. However, when it comes to the cost of living, you can sustain a reasonably good life at a lower price in Delhi as compared to Mumbai. The food, clothes, travel everything is a lot cheaper in Delhi than Mumbai.

4. Seasons

If you are a dynamic person and love change then Mumbai is not the place for you. They have just hot, hotter, humid seasons. Delhi has lots of seasons to offer for the people who love change. You can enjoy the most of winters and exhaust yourself to the peak in the summers while enjoying spring, autumn, monsoon in between.

5. Crowd

If one has been to both the places i.e. Delhi and Mumbai, one must has realized long back that the crowd of Delhi is far more fun loving than Mumbai’s crowd. Mumbaikars are busy in earning and sustaining livelihoods for themselves, but in Delhi you would find a more social and fun-loving crowd.

Here we come to an end of the discussion, but this list is not comprehensive. There are many more reasons that makes Delhi a better place than Mumbai. However, not to forget that everything has its own pros and cons. Few things like Safety, Night life, Jobs and opportunities makes Mumbai a tough competition but not enough to beat Delhi.
