The growth of group housing indicates broader economic and social change. For most middle-class families, individual house construction is becoming increasingly impractical with increasing costs, limited time, and administrative obstacles. Apartment blocks provide an economical solution with pre-constructed homes that eliminate the problems of building a house from scratch. This phenomenon extends beyond Tier I cities, reaching suburbs and small towns as well. Government authorities and private builders are also addressing this by prioritizing group housing projects. City planning norms such as minimum density, and market forces, such as land price, influence these schemes. Nevertheless, the success of such projects depends on resolving the social dynamics of communal living.
