How Jaipur is Becoming a Preferred City for NRIs & City Dwellers

Jaipur, the capital city of Rajasthan, has become an emerging hotspot for professionals, NRIs, and migrants. A city that has always been celebrated for its rich cultural heritage and royal charm is now an exciting place to live and invest in – all thanks to the developments across the city, modern infrastructure, growing job opportunities, better connectivity, growing IT hub, etc.

Jaipur, in addition to being a popular tourist destination, has now become a popular city to live in, buy property, and invest in real estate. Not only does it offer steady rental yields, due to an increase in the migrant population, but also a higher potential return on property investment than major metros.

How Jaipur is Becoming a Preferred City for NRIs & City Dwellers

The Rise of Jaipur as a Job Hub


On hearing Jaipur, our first thought was always of a tourist destination, a city with a lot of history, culture, forts, monuments, etc. – although all of this is still true, the city has outgrown this typecast. Jaipur is transforming into a thriving economic hub, attracting businesses and professionals across various industries. 

According to the India Talent Insights Report 2024, Jaipur has seen significant hiring growth in IT, BFSI (Banking, Financial Services, and Insurance), manufacturing, retail, and healthcare. This is mainly because:

  • Government Initiatives Both the state as well as the central governments have brought multiple business-friendly policies and infrastructure development, which has encouraged companies to set up offices here.
  • Cost-Effective Operations Jaipur offers a lower cost of living and more affordable office spaces compared to metro cities like Delhi or Mumbai
  • Tech and Startup Boom Many popular startups have grown out of Jaipur like CarDekho, Minimalist, Zostel, etc., promoting startup culture, shared office spaces, and a dynamic work culture

For professionals, this means more job opportunities with a balanced lifestyle, something that metro cities in this day and age are struggling to offer.

Post-pandemic shift toward tier-II cities


The pandemic changed a lot for many people– good and bad. One good thing that happened post-pandemic was a shift from metro cities due to the high cost of living, pollution, and congestion. This phenomenon of people moving back to their home cities or towns for a better quality of life and economic feasibility is known as reverse migration, and cities like Jaipur, Chandigarh, Indore, Bhiwadi, etc. benefit from this.

This increased demand for residential real estate in Jaipur marks its transition from a historical city to a modern urban center.

In addition to this, the Smart City Mission is driving technological advancements, which is also making the pink city future-ready.
