The city is addictive- Once you start living & working in Mumbai, you can’t live anywhere else
The world is big, and there are many cities that you go to for higher education, work, meeting family & friends. And then you come back to your own with a lot of memories, some good and others bad. You then recall those memories for a couple of days and get back to your routine life. But there are a few cities which never fail to crave a long-lasting impression on your life, teaching you things which you would have never experienced.
One such city is Mumbai. It is one of the most populated cities of India and welcomes everyone with wide open arms and a warm heart. Those who live in Mumbai know its magic. It carries its own rhythm, and it takes some time for someone to hear and feel the same.
The encompassing beauty, warm embrace, and motherly selflessness of the city make it one of a kind. It is where dreams are fulfilled, and life moves at a fast pace.
Besides being a beautiful city and big Bollywood land, Mumbai is an important center for business, trade, and commerce, offering vast opportunities to job seekers every day.
Well, if you are looking forward to moving to a new city for a job, then here are a few reasons to choose Mumbai.
So, let’s move forward and see how living and working in Mumbai can transform your whole life and make you a person, better than yesterday (a lot better, in fact).
#1. The city never sleeps- And you are free to work anytime
The clock is no bar
Mumbai’s nightlife is eclectic. No!! Not just for party freaks and late-night hangout onlookers but also for the working class. The city never sleeps, and the night shift working class is a usual scenario here. Thus, it does not restrict people, who have an urge to earn well, to the number of working hours in a day.
So, going to Mumbai for starting a career is one of the best choices as the city offers a large number of opportunities to work and earn well, and that too in a safe environment.
#2. A Hub of Opportunities- All you gotta do is grab one
Mumbai don’t play with this rule
Around 81% of the population of Mumbai works in the service sector, including communication, social, and personal services. The number in itself is significant and clearly chalks out how there are vast opportunities open for a person who wishes to work here.
It does not matter what type of work you are looking for, and the city has it all. From street food business enthusiasts to white-collar job seekers and funky tattoo artists, Mumbai appreciates all.
It might take some time to settle down, but being in Mumbai, you will never fail to get a job or start your own business.
Also, you might learn the art of working in two-shifts (if you are open to the same).
And that’s how you become a multi-tasker because the city accommodates both slumdog and millionaire with an open heart.
#3. A single abode unites different lives- And you will learn to share
Mumbai is a place for everyone, and cultural diversity is strong here. You will not only get to see people from different backgrounds on roads but also in your apartment. Since getting a place to live in Mumbai is tough, and when it comes to owning an apartment all on your own, the financial stress can shake you.
So, people generally prefer to rent flat in Mumbai and live in shared accommodation. And this unites people of different backgrounds.
Thus, you will learn to live with people (totally different from you) who might feel like family in no time.
#4. The moving phenomenon called “locals”- You will develop a thing for the crowd
Because it takes everything to be a part of ‘this crowd’
People generally fear crowd, but Mumbaikars don’t. Do you want to know why? Because they have been using Mumbai locals. Yes!! That’s true.
Once you start your new chapter of life in Mumbai and hop on the local trains, you will experience a gleaming view of the crowd from all walks of life.
Yes!! You might find it a daunting experience, but once habitual, you will start enjoying seeing these people play cards on the train or hear someone offering free stock market tips.
This is ultimately going to help you ever after because no crowd (no matter how big) will ever be able to make you feel anxious.
Well, that’s a score!!

#5. You will learn to celebrate life- Just as it is
Because Mumbai starts living inside you
One of the best things about living in Mumbai is that it makes you love life, and you start celebrating it each day. The crowded local transport, terrific traffic, and heavy Mumbai rains play their soulful rhythms in your routine life, and you can’t help but dance in your head.
Also, despite feeling tired, you end up being energetic as the routine Mumbai life serves as music.
Wrapping it Up
Not everything is a bed of roses, and Mumbai has its own potholes. But, the city has so much to offer to anyone who visits, either as a tourist or to live and work, that it somehow manages to create its place in people’s hearts and lives.
No place in the country can match the extremities of the big glamour world, cultural diversity, ample career opportunities, and the unstoppable life of Mumbai. Also, the city is whole in itself, and it makes your life complete too, in both social and career aspects.
So what is holding you back now?
Pack your bags, move to the city of dreams, and get ready to live and enjoy life on the edge.
