Twenty years back I used to lament about living in a slow city (nee, village) called Madurai.  But over the last decade, I’m glad that Madurai is growing slowly when compared to other cities in Tamilnadu.  With rapid expansion, even Tuticorin & Erode seems to be growing faster than Madurai.

It takes at least 50 minutes to commute on a four-wheeler to cross 10kms within city in Chennai during peak hours.  Worse in Bangalore.  Coimbatore is only marginally better.  Compared to this, Madurai is scoring highly even though it has narrow roads.

Seems a blessing in disguise!
