Cities are constantly in flux whether spatially or socially. Expansion of Ahmedabad began after industries started propping up resulting in city to grow. With decadal urban growth of 27.82 % city is now sprawling around its periphery which not only changes the spatial composition but impacts social life of people residing or choosing to reside in the area.  Sola is a resultant of such sprawls, residing in this neighbourhood increases residential as well as job choices also but it does not provide space for proper social interactions pushing people towards a declining quality of life and so tradeoffs are made.
