Baranagar sits just north of the city along BT Road, and has become much more attractive since the metro extension towards Dakshineswar opened up fast, direct access to central Kolkata. It is a dense, established suburb with a rich local market economy and the Dakshineswar temple and Ganges ghats close by. Housing is mostly apartments and builder floors at some of the more affordable prices you will find within easy metro reach of the business parts of the city. For buyers priced out of central and North Kolkata but unwilling to give up connectivity, Baranagar is one of the strongest value options around.
