In recent years, the ward has undergone rapid development to become one of Kochi's highest-valued regions.

Kendriya Vidyalaya (KV), Soften Technologies, Bhavans Vidya Mandir and St Josephs Upper Primary School are located in this area.

It is close to the South Railway Station, with easy access to Kaloor, Vyttila and Cochin International Airport.

The presence of the Ernakulam Junction Railway Station and residential colonies raise real estate prices.

It provides alternate access to Atlantis via Railway gate or Thevara Junction, thus avoiding the usually busy M.G Road.
