This is urban hell

I can’t see a single mandatory distance between single family homes anywhere

Looks just like most urban areas in the U.S..

Joking aside, is this really considered suburban? I always thought of suburban as meaning single family homes.

That’s not what suburban means. That’s what suburban tends to be in the United States, single family sprawl. All it means is a mostly residential area outside an urban center. The reason this doesn’t fit this subreddit is because suburbs in Mumbai are very dense and sometimes just slums. Such as this. When we discuss hell here, from what I’ve seen it looks like in the first world context. Of course developing world no matter where it is will look hellish for us.
