I think I should shed some light on the effective education facilities that Ernakulum provides.Global public school, Bharatiya Vidya Bhavan are both here. You'll also find a number of higher education institutes here, like Maharajas College, Government Model Engineering College, St.Teresas Women's College, Govt. Law College, Sacred Heart College

Oh that railway station! There is even a KSRTC bu stand right next to it. But the airport is a little further away. Cochin International Airport is the closest to this place, and its almost 27 km away from here.

Yeah man, I mean you can take that highway to reach pretty much all the places in Kochi. In fact even outside Kochi, like Thrissur, Palakkad, Coimbatore, etc. Also the Ernakulum Junction railway station is here, its pretty busy, and a sizeable amount of trains for different parts of the country even, can be boarded from here.

What about its connectivity guys, I think the fact that Ernakulum is so well connected with other localities and places in Kerala has definitely worked in its favor and will continue to do so. I mean the whole North-South Corridor National Highway System is so easily contacted via the 4-laned NH-47.

I think its also got a considerable residential market, along with all this commercialisation. You'll find a number of well-known hospitals in the place, like General Hospital, Medical Trust Hospital, Maharaja's Taluk Hospitall, Indira Gandhi Memorial Cooperative Hospital and City Hospital.

There are lots others actually, like Susrusha Nursing Home, PVS Memorial Hospital, Saraf Memorial Hospital, etc. You'll find some clinics and research centres here too! Like Nechupadam Orthodontics Dental Clinic and the Little Flower Hospital & Research Centre. So its pretty safe to say that there are enough healthcare facilities around this place.

I think Ernakulum is definitely the place to stay for the more urban crowd, the place is well commercialised and has a number of stores and shopping centres, which is basically the reason why its preferred to by the younger crowd of Kochi.

Hey did you know that the Ernakulum is basically the entire eastern mainland part of the Ernakulum-Kochi twin city pair? But it still comes under the jurisdiction of the Greater Cochin Developmental Authority, so its pretty developed. Reasonable place for an investment or even for staying in.
