What Residents Say About Padur (OMR)
Living here cuts my commute to the Siruseri IT park to almost nothing. It’s cheaper than the northern OMR stretch too.
Good value for money on the corridor. The area is developing fast and having universities close by is a plus.
The connectivity to work is excellent, but OMR traffic during office hours can really test your patience.
We rented here because of the IT parks and stayed for the community feel. Everyday needs are covered, malls less so.
Affordable and practical for professionals. Still, parking on the smaller roads and weekend shopping options need work.
Being on the IT corridor with Kelambakkam junction nearby makes daily life convenient. Great pick for young working families.
