Living in India — April 2023 Archive
Thinking about life in India? The April 2023 posts on Society Watch TV give you a mix of first-hand impressions, practical tips, and honest realities. You’ll find useful comparisons, daily snapshots, social challenges, and a few tech and entertainment notes — all written so you can decide what matters to you.
What we covered about daily life and moving
Several pieces ask the same big question: should you live in India? One article compares living in India to other countries and boils it down to three concrete things to check before you move: cost of living, job options, and the city’s vibe. Don’t pick a country by photos. Visit for a month, talk to locals, and test the job market for your field.
Another post paints a day-to-day picture: noisy mornings, busy markets, diverse food, and fast-changing cities. If you like variety and community, that can be energizing. If you prefer routine and quiet, pick smaller towns or well-planned suburbs. Public transport and informal services make daily life workable, but expect occasional delays and noise.
We also looked at common struggles many face: gaps in healthcare access, unequal schooling, water and sanitation issues in some areas, and job scarcity for certain skills. These are concrete problems that affect daily choices — where you live, how you commute, and what kind of work you pursue. If safety nets and reliable services matter most, prioritize neighborhoods with better infrastructure and private healthcare options.
Expat stories, society topics, and tech tips
An eye-opening post explores what it’s like for Indians living in Russia. The main takeaways: language is the biggest barrier, but the lower cost of living and friendly communities can make the experience rewarding. Practical tip: learn basic Russian and join local Indian groups to ease the transition.
We didn’t shy away from sensitive social topics. One article explains why some Indians hold resentment toward Indian Americans. It links that feeling to differing lifestyles and strong local pride. That helps explain cultural friction but doesn’t excuse rudeness — understanding both sides makes conversations less hostile.
On lighter, practical subjects, we covered media and tech too. One post lists sources for full TV shows on YouTube and recommends checking channel legitimacy and video quality. Another explains why hooking a home audio system to your TV improves sound and streaming experience — useful if you care about clearer dialogue and better bass without buying a new TV.
April’s archive gives a balanced view: India offers vivid experiences and real challenges. Use these posts to shape what you try first — short visits, neighborhood checks, language basics, and realistic budgets. That’ll make decisions faster and less risky.
As a blogger who's traveled to various countries, I've often considered what it would be like to live in India compared to other places.

It's essential to experience the country first-hand and do thorough research on the cities that interest you.
