Rising Housing Costs in Gurugram Challenge Affordability Amid Corporate Growth
Gurugram has transformed from an affordable Delhi alternative into a major corporate hub, attracting many professionals. However, rising property prices and rental costs in premium areas like Golf Course Road and Dwarka Expressway have outpaced income growth, making homeownership increasingly difficult for salaried households. This affordability gap leads to longer commutes and delayed homeownership. With ongoing infrastructure development and corporate expansion, demand remains strong, highlighting the need for more diverse housing options to address affordability challenges.
