I work in Guindy and chose Saligramam because of its connectivity. You get buses, metro, and Uber easily. The area’s mostly residential, with schools and clinics nearby. Only problem I face is waterlogging during heavy rains. Otherwise, it’s a smooth experience.

We bought a flat in Saligramam as a long-term investment. Rental demand is steady, mostly from young professionals and families. The crowd is mostly students, actors, and IT folks. Lots of mess options, theatres, and temples.

We’ve been staying in our own house here since 2016. The area has evolved a lot—more supermarkets, ATMs, and better lighting on main roads. However, inner streets can get congested with parked vehicles. Still, the locality feels very community-driven.

Saligramam has that old Chennai charm. It's quiet inside the inner lanes but buzzing near the main road. You’ll find all essentials within walking distance. No major parks nearby, though. Good for families and solo renters alike.

This area sees consistent rental movement due to the film studios nearby and access to commercial hubs. I’ve rented out my 1BHK to a junior editor. The metro and bus connectivity adds long-term potential even though prices are already high.

I have a 2BHK near Saligramam Police Station. I usually get working couples or media professionals as tenants. It’s a safe, middle-class area with temples and small eateries. Road maintenance has improved over the years.

A well-connected residential area with popular for its peaceful streets, schools, and easy access to commercial areas.

It is comfortable and easy to access with restaurants, shops, and nearby entertainment areas. It has a balanced residential and commercial feel.

Getting an auto near Prasad Labs during rush hour is total torture. Rent is reasonable, but Arcot Road traffic gets insane every evening.

Living close to Abusal Park is lovely for early morning walks. Only pain is narrow lanes near Dasarathapuram get choked with parked cars.

our kids study at Balalok Matriculation school, which is just a short walk away. Street lights around Dasarathapuram main road could be brighter though.

Vadapalani Metro station is barely 5 minutes away on a bike, which is honestly so easy and time saving. i also love the active community life..people conduct workshops and reading events at parks which is great for weekends and socializing

Love visiting the Sri Vadajothi Vinayagar Temple every Friday morning. Water supply is a small headache in summer, but otherwise a decent neighbourhood.

Having Surya Hospital and local pharmacies around Arunachalam Road is comforting as we have eldery at home.. Footpaths near the main bus stop are completely broken though.

Catching a movie at AGS Cinemas is always fun with my best friend...there are many churches and temples nearby too

Property demand stays super high because film workers and IT folks both like Saligramam. So-so drainage during heavy rains, but rental yield is consistent.

I live close to my workplace here.. plenty of budget tea stalls nearby. Auto drivers charge 100 bucks for less than 1 km distances though

i love the busy neighborhood..it has a hussle vibe to it..but people also enjoy on weekends.. my fav spot is The Waterfall Restaurant which is close to my college also..
