Faridabad is very similar to the rest of India with culture and tradition depicting typical India style. People from all communities and castes live together in peace and harmony. The prominent castes in Faridabad are Jats and Gujars along with people from Uttar Pradesh and other parts of Haryana. The growth and development in the city saw people migrating from states like Bihar, Rajasthan, West Bengal and Uttar Pradesh. Close proximity to Delhi gives a "Delhi touch" to the city.

The district of Faridabad has been categorized into five divisions viz. Faridabad, Ballabgarh, Palwal and Hodal. Faridabad has the advantage of being situated in the proximity of the national capital, New Delhi. Faridabad is rapidly growing in terms of economy, lifestyle, business, industrialization, infrastructure, real estate, education and health care. Of late, Faridabad has been attracting tourists to the city's famous Badkhal Lake, Aravalli Golf Club, Dabchick, Raja Nahar Singh Palace etc.

Smart technologies can help us make our cities more efficient. Let we take an example based on mobility. The sharing economy is now entering many domains (think AirBNB, etc.) and can be applied to our transportation infrastructure. Cars are idle 95% of the time, making them an ideal candidate for the sharing economy. It has been estimated that every shared car can replace ~10-30 privately owned cars. Also, the impact of car sharing will grow exponentially with the advent of self-driving cars.
