angalore, officially the Bengaluru, is the capital of the Indian state Karnataka. Bangalore is located in the southeastern region on the state on the Deccan Plateau and it is the third most populous city and the 5th most populous urban area. Also known as the Silicon Valley of India, Bangalore has an estimated 2014 population of 10,178,000 in the metro area.
Bangalore has an estimated population of 10.1 million in its urban area, up from 8.5 million in 2011. It is now the 18th most populous city in the world and the fastest-growing Indian metropolis behind New Delhi, growing a whopping 38% from 1991 to 2001.
Bangalore Demographics
In 1991, the most common languages spoken in Bangalore were:
Kannada (38%)Tamil (28%)Telugu (17%)Urdu (13%)Malayalam (3%)Hindi (2.5%)
Communities with a long history in the region include the Tamilians, Kannadigas and Telugus. By the 1500s, Bangalore had speakers of all three languages. The Tamil-speaking people originally migrated to the region in three waves: in the 10th century after Bangalore was captured by Cholas of Tamil Nadu; during the Vijayanagara period; and in the 1700s during a time of need for militia. Telugu-speaking people migrated to the city by invitation of Mysore royalty.
At one time, the city had a substantial Anglo-Indian population, which was the second-largest behind Calcutta, but this population has since fallen to just 10,000.
About 79% of the population is Hindu, which is in line with the Indian national average. Muslims account for 13% of the population, followed by Christians (6%) and Jains (1%).
About 10% of residents in Bangalore live in slums, although this number is low compared to other major cities in developing countries, such as Nairobi(60%) or Mumbai (50%). Bangalore is dealing with many problems that come from growing very rapidly in a developing country, including social inequality, an increasing number of slums, public health crises from sewage issues and water shortages, and mass displacement. Much of the population growth in Bangalore is due to migration from other states, which has increased tension between locals and immigrants.
Bangalore also has a very skewed female-male gender ratio: 908 women for every 1,000 men. It also has the lowest work participation rate among women, with just 24% of women working.
