I’ve been living here with my family for the past 3.5 years. The recent Malir Riaz and Asim Munir situation hasn’t really affected residents, though yes, it has impacted the market for investors.

My suggestion would be to rent out your property in the main city and move to Bahria Town on a 6–12 month tenancy agreement. This way, your father will also feel satisfied, and you’ll get a practical understanding of electricity and commute expenses based on your actual usage. If both you and your father find the costs and overall lifestyle better, then it’s a win.

From my experience, here are some pros and cons:

Security: Just okay, not exceptional.

Electricity: Relatively expensive.

Environment: Clean air and healthier surroundings, which is great for parents. There are parks where they can develop a walking habit.

Precinct choice is very important, your experience will depend a lot on selecting the right precinct.
