It is interesting to read the comparison. I am 86 years old and my wife and I are thinking of exploring living in Lucknow, where my wife was born and brought up and I worked for few years. I was born in Fyzabad, and we spent all our life in India in U.P. and Delhi. We left India in 1963 for UK, and lived in Canberra for over 42 years, working for National Capital Development Commission.
I would be pleased to find out any relevant information before we visit Lucknow to explore the possibility of retirement.
Thanks
