I think the fact that it lies adjacent to the NH212 has been a major factor why this place has seen recently price appreciation. The apartments are rated at an average of Rs 2600 per sq feet and the individual houses here are priced at an average of Rs 4800 per sq feet.
Other than smaller provision stores, there are a few supermarkets in the locality as well. Im talking about More supermarket, Cauvery supermarket, Paradise super bazar etc. You'll find quite a number of restaurants here as well. for example, Royal Chalet, Sri Vinayak Tiffins, Manjunath Tiffins, etc.
I want to tell you about the banks and atms that are there. Plenty of atms are here - HDFC, Axis Bank, SBI, Corporation bank, etc.. these are all I know of. There are even some branches of some banks here like State bank of Mysore, Cavery Kalpatharu Grameena bank, then Karnataka bank, etc.
This is a quite a big residential place. Plenty of schools - JSS Public School, Ramakrishna Vidya Kendra, DAV Public School, Vishwa Manava Vidya Kendra, etc. The safety factor is also high here, so families often prefer this place. Since you have a child, you should consider those things no!
The Ring Road, plus also the NH212, which is basically the Kozhikode-Mysore Highway, also passes through here. Waise, locality is nice in its itself. Lots of greenery. Some of its contributed by the JP Nagar Lion's Club, thats one of the features of this place.
