What makes Dadar unique for commuters in Mumbai is that the place is the only railway station common to both the Central and Western lines. Living in Dadar for Rishiraj Kulkarni, a real estate developer has been a great joy. He says, “Now due to a lot of redevelopment taking place, more flats will become available also the rates have stabilised as a result giving buyers more choice. Dadar has got swanky new projects and there are options for buyers who want to buy quality apartments here.”

Congestion and crowds
For resident Alpesh Gogri, Dadar has become overcrowded and congested. He says, “Being centrally located, people have always ended up making Dadar a meeting point. The hawkers on the roads have added to problems. There is no order and also the lack of hygiene in Dadar market is unhealthy.”
