Property in Meerut Cantonment
Meerut Cantonment is the city's premium residential address. Wide roads, mature greenery, and low-density construction with roughly 61% price appreciation over the last three years. Most housing here is independent builder floors and smaller complexes rather than large towers. Some plots fall under cantonment board jurisdiction, which affects construction and resale rules, so this should always be verified before purchase.
Ask a Meerut broker which locality people move to once budget stops being the deciding factor, and Cantonment comes up almost every time. It's the cleanest, greenest, and generally best-maintained part of the city, with a noticeably lower density than the rest of Meerut. That combination of scarcity and quality of life is exactly what's driven the roughly 61% appreciation seen here over the past three years.
