The challenges of city dwelling are the focus of this paper. Safe and affordable housing is a hallmark of a developed society. However, millions of people worldwide currently have nowhere safe to sleep at night. The issue of people without homes is massive. Those lucky enough to own a home often find it inadequate for their families. Housing in urban areas, which are characterized by a high population density and a variety of residential, commercial, and industrial functions, is referred to as “urban housing.” Apartments, townhouses, and single-family homes are just a few examples of the different sizes, styles, and price points that make up urban housing. This article explores possible answers to India’s urban housing crisis as well as its current state of affairs.
