Koramangala is one of the most lively parts of Bangalore. Located in the south eastern part of Karnataka, it is known around the block for its pubs and energetic night life, Koramangala is the place to be on a Saturday night. Koramangala as a whole has a population of 35,359. It is arguably one of the most popular residential areas to live in. The area tends to attract a lot of migrants, seeking to live in the cosmopolitan hub of the city. It neighbours Ejipura, Madiwala and Adugodi.

Geography
Koramangala has been split into eight divisions, which goes a little over the span of 1800 acres. Block one to four is separated from block eight to five by an inner ring road that leads to the Domlur/Indiranagar high way. It was only until the 1970’s that people had started to consider it a residential area, and began to settle there. One can take several roads to reach the destination that want to because of how many areas are geographically located around Koramangala.

History
Koramangala was considered an underdeveloped suburban area that is situated in the cantonment region of Bangalore. However, the block did not originally start off the same way. With Infosys and other tech companies starting up within this area of Bangalore, it began to develop. People had quickly started identifying the area and had begun to set up malls and restaurants that catered to the many IT people that were situated there. Soon, its first mall (forum mall) had been set up, leading to the rise of the Koramangala we know today.
