Just damn statistics. Look for the brand quotient, which indicates PEDIGREE (how classic?), POSHNESS (hip and hep?), PROMISE (future value?), PIGGYBAGGAGE (IT rub-off?), and PROXIMITY (airport nearby?).
These 5Ps were, then, the deciding factors in the first DNA-IMRS survey of Bangalore's Best Localities (the L-list). The topper is no surprise: Indiranagar, a social hub that has been reengineered by business and entertainment. Even in its bleakest moments—the locality has surrendered its calm interior to the daily grating and bullying of a W-I-P Metro—Indiranagar is a big residential draw. In essence, Indiranagar = neighbourhoods + culture + 100 Ft Rd.
