Big builders like RNA (NG), Sanghvi Group, Evershine Group, Asmita Group and Krishna Constructions have now started to concentrate on this part of the city.
This suburb despite being situated in thane district enjoys all the facilities provided by the BMC including power from BSES, telecom facilities from MTNL and transportation from BEST
Affordable property rates and peaceful surroundings is another plus point in the area

Shivara is a hot recreational spot with boating facilities

Another minus point is that the trains halting at Mira road station are totally packed. It's a challenge for daily commuters.u00a0
