Jodhpur: A Predominantly Residential Precinct

Jodhpur, situated on the periphery of Ahmedabad, is a predominantly residential precinct characterized by a significant Jain community and a mix of housing types, including detached homes, apartments, and high-rise buildings developed under town planning schemes. Despite its residential dominance and strategic location, the area faces key urban challenges, such as limited quality open spaces, inadequate walkability, and issues with waterlogging due to poor infrastructure design. While waste collection is moderately better compared to other areas, the high rent and property values make housing unaffordable for lower-income groups. These factors, coupled with the rising property costs, highlight the need for strategic interventions to enhance livability and accessibility in Jodhpur.
