This study examines migration and daily life in Noida's informal settlements, with a particular emphasis on migrant workers' experiences and interactions with members of the upper class. The study, which is based on primary fieldwork with 100 respondents, looks at housing conditions, employment, and urban service accessibility. The results show that although migrant workers continue to be concentrated in informal employment and unstable housing, they play a vital role in the growth of the city. Migrants and members of higher society frequently interact daily, but social integration is still scarce. The study emphasizes the need for inclusive urban planning and shows that urban inequality in Noida is structural in nature.
