An economist recently said after conducting a nation wide survey of India that India is basically 3 different countries inside one with people from those tiers living drastically different lives.I already showed what tier 1 India looks like.


And this is tier 2. Where my dad spent majority of his life. It's chill and because you are in kerala it has proper garbage disposal so the streets are clean. Crime is non existent because again you are in kerala better off than most places. 24/7 water and electricity with good internet. Education is also decent but it's stuck in a time warp. Like you went back 40-50 years or something. All the buildings are old wires and electricity lines dangling everywhere that were setup decades ago. Some of these areas have remain untouched since 60s.The roads can be rough, sometimes just dirt paths after the monsoon. Life's affordable but there are no jobs to do. You'll stay where you are there's 0 growth which is why my dad left this place in his youth and worked his ass off for me. This is the how the middle class lives

Kerala is a nice place to live tbh. Been there multiple times as a kid.

Communities in towns and villages are tightly knit like every other village in India and that's perfect for old people

I was terrified of the street dogs though. There are fucking 19 of them in every street

Only humans stay in a bad area instead of just moving somewhere else

This is because all humans are inferior to apex predator animals

Interesting. How hard or easy is it to immigrate from a 3rd world country?

Do you need a PhD or do they just let anyone in from India? I was born here so I don’t know the process.

It's a bit complicated. For H-1B and Green Card applications, the requirements are be quite strict. However, I'm currently on a J-1 visa with and my employer is considering sponsoring me due to the strength of my profile but I also need 2 years of home residency. In cases like mine it's less about formal education and more about whether the candidate meets the specific job requirements. I also need to be paid 6 figures to fit the prevailing wage standards so cases like mine are kinda rare.

IM NOT WEALTHY U DONT UNDERSTAND FAGGOT?
You dont have to be wealthy to retire there. Just have savings or a remote job. Buy some land and live off it. That is what 90% of the people there do
