Infosys campus + small IT base; the honest read: this is remote-work and retirement paradise, not a career market. Bengaluru is 3 hrs (rail 2) when you need it.
Good CBSE base + NIE engineering; boarding-school belt nearby.
JSS, Apollo BGS, Narayana — adequate-to-good; quaternary edge cases go to Bengaluru.
MYQ is thin domestic; BLR 3 hrs by road/rail is the real airport.
Bengaluru decongestion tailwind (rail upgrades, 10-lane highway); heritage-city planning discipline.
Palace city: yoga capital, Dasara, clean streets (India's perennial Swachh topper), old-Mysore courtesy. English/Kannada blend.
Driver ₹12–15k
Cook ₹4–6k
Bungalow-belt 3BHK rent ₹20–30k
Good CBSE ₹50k–1.2L/yr
