What's with the scattered urban agglomeration of Tirunelveli?
Have been here only a few times but always been curious about the unevenly distributed urban areas of the city. Unlike other cities in TN that mostly have continuously inhabited neighbourhoods, this place has large but less dense suburbs in different places, with Palayamkottai, Melapalayam and Town being the only dense centers but detached from each other.
It's hard to explain but it looks like a constellation of neighbourhoods connected by suburbs. Is there a geographical factor that led to this? Would love to know your inputs.
