With a population of 874,408, Aligarh is a sprawling, unglamorous city in Uttar Pradesh. The bureaucracy is a persistent headache, and the extreme fog and cold snaps in winter can be brutal. However, the city remains an important agricultural and manufacturing hub, known for its thriving lock industry and brass hardware exports. Aligarh is best suited for those seeking economic opportunities, not a scenic or comfortable lifestyle.
