Pithapuram Colony: An emerging residential destination in North Vizag
Pithapuram Colony is located about 21 km away from the heart of Visakhapatnam on its northern fringe. Strategically located along the NH-5, it has the prospect of turning into a prominent residential area. Other than its strategic location and excellent connectivity, there are other factors as well that have contributed to the rise in popularity of the area. They include the infrastructure facilities, availability of many residential options from prominent developers and the affordable prices of these residential units.

There are many bus stops in the area that provide easy accessibility across the city as well as to other locations. It is about 6 km away from the Visakhapatnam railway station and about 14 km away from the Visakhapatnam airport.
Infrastructure
Pithapuram Colony has some good infrastructure facilities. Some of the prominent schools in the area are St. Paul’s Public School, Rani Memorial Vidyalayam etc. There are many important religious institutions in the area like Siva temple, Krishna temple, Tara mosque etc. One of the prominent IT companies in the area is S Square Software Solutions.

Future Prospects
The residential realty prospects of Pithapuram Colony depends primarily on the infrastructure facilities that would come up in the area in future. At present, there is a dearth of sufficient social infrastructure facilities which is preventing the area from developing into an important residential destination. However, there is tremendous scope for the area to develop more quality social infrastructure due to the large parcels of vacant land that the area has. Besides, the future prospects that Vizag holds as a prospective capital of Andhra Pradesh could also lead to improvement in the infrastructure of Pithapuram Colony. This could lead to many prominent developers embarking on many prestigious residential projects to cater to the rising demand for residential property in future.
