Quick answer

West Bangalore — Rajajinagar, Yeshwanthpur, Peenya, Vijayanagar, Mysore Road, Kengeri and Magadi Road — is served by the Purple Line to Challaghatta, the Green Line through Peenya, the Bengaluru–Mysuru expressway and the Phase 3 Orange Line under construction. It offers some of the city's best value for metro-connected housing.

Introduction

West Bangalore is often overlooked by buyers focused on the IT belts, yet it has some of the city's best metro coverage and its most affordable connected housing. Rajajinagar and Malleshwaram are long-established; Peenya is a major industrial hub; Kengeri and Mysore Road have grown along the Purple Line and the Mysuru expressway. The Phase 3 Orange Line along Magadi Road will extend that coverage further.

This guide explains the infrastructure and where value lies.
