The article mentioned that Mumbai, <em>India\u2019s Maximum City<\/em>, has been ranked among the top 20 expensive cities in the world. While London was ranked ahead of New York and Hong Kong, Mumbai, my birth city, was the only Indian city that made it to the list. The news further tells us that all the top cities are most expensive for businesses and workers to occupy. This means that the report only focuses on the real estate segment and does not take into consideration the average lifestyle and living conditions. Ironically, Mumbai is often voted as the most expensive city in India, but I can assure you that majority of the Mumbai population survives on less than Rs. 20000 per month (that\u2019s US$300). To all those who grumble about the rising cost of the city, let me tell you this \u2013 Mumbai is all about finding options. The city is open to all from beggars to millionaires; therefore all you need to do is find what you want. If you are in the Maximum City on a limited budget for business purposes, or if you are visiting someone just for a day or two, here are some ways on how to survive in Mumbai at a minimum cost.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><strong>Travel in Local Trains, Skip Cabs<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re looking for how to survive in Mumbai tips local trains can help you. Mumbai is the only city in India with a massive railway network, so take advantage of it.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Local trains can take you from one corner of the city to another without burning a hole in your pocket.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>For instance, a 60-kilometer (37.28 miles) train ride from Churchgate to Virar will cost you Rs. 20 (that\u2019s only 31 USD cents). A cab ride for the same distance can cost you more than Rs. 1000 (that\u2019s US$15.36).<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_3789\" style=\"width: 1034px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3789\" class=\"size-large wp-image-3789\" src=\"https:\/\/travelindiadestinations.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/Travel-by-Train-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"Mumbai local train\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" srcset=\"https:\/\/travelindiadestinations.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/Travel-by-Train-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/travelindiadestinations.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/Travel-by-Train-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/travelindiadestinations.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/Travel-by-Train-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/travelindiadestinations.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/Travel-by-Train-1170x658.jpg 1170w, https:\/\/travelindiadestinations.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/Travel-by-Train-585x329.jpg 585w, https:\/\/travelindiadestinations.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/Travel-by-Train.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-3789\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Nothing beats the local train in Mumbai<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Apart from the cost, the train ride will help you reach your destination quicker than any cab, which is why you will find more people traveling in the local train.
