But if you have a big budget you can consider renting an apartment relatively close to Chowringhee, in places like Camac Street or Theatre Road or Middleton Row (last one is ideal). However, like in Mumbai, in some of the older apartments the landlords are conservative Marwari and Gujarati elders in their 70s. They want people who are pure vegetarians. Plus no smoking and drinking, no girlfriends etc. So in the end you may be forced to look to South Calcutta.
I will be moving to Kolkata to join a reputed law firm soon. I am finding it a bit hard to find accommodation in the city. If anyone can help with any leads for rentals in safe localities near the High Court Area or suggest other nearby localities where I can I look for a flat, it would be really helpful.
Thanks in advance.
