Coliving-Spaces in Hyderabad.

Four months ago, when Amit Batra, 46, head of operations at a renewable energy company, left his family behind in Gurugram to take up a job in Hyderabad, he knew renting an apartment wasn’t worth the hassle. Shibani Marathe, a 28-year-old data analyst at Deloitte, was moving from London to Hyderabad and sought a vibrant community in a new city. Vineet Arora, 39, a Navy veteran and technical manager at Salesforce, lived in a hotel for three months when he moved to Hyderabad and struggled to get homely meals.

Finding accommodation in a new city is a monumental task. It not only means managing all your affairs on your own, but also fighting waves of homesickness. Also with that entry level salary, sharing a flat is often expensive, and one has to make do inferior facilities in hostels and paying guests.

Co-living, the sequel to co-working, falls in with the culture of building collaborations and fostering a sense of community. Young adults are shutting the door on dodgy PGs, cramped hostels and expensive shared apartments

We know how difficult moving to a new city can be, but Living Quarter — a co-living space in Hyderabad is making settling in our city a cakewalk. These shared living spaces allow you to rent a fully-furnished room.

Hyderabad is warming up to coliving spaces and backpacking hostels, a hostel-like provision for smaller times with a per day cost.

Targeted primarily at millennials, the co-living market, with its promise of convenience and finding your tribe, is set to grow in India

Living in co-living spaces was a trend until the Covid-19 pandemic hit us. With the work culture becoming WFH, many of those who preferred this accommodation to rent/leasing flats returned back to their homes.
