North Bangalore is not one locality but a broad sweep of the city: Hebbal and Sanjaynagar in the inner north, Yelahanka and Jakkur beyond, Hennur, Thanisandra and Kothanur to the north-east, and the airport corridor stretching up through Devanahalli towards Nandi Hills. Since the airport moved here in 2008, this side of the city has grown faster than almost any other, with new townships, wide roads and a large share of the city's retirement communities.
Families looking for senior living in North Bangalore often have one of two things in mind: a care home close to the big hospitals of Hebbal, or a retirement apartment in a quieter township near the airport. This page introduces one of the operators active here and points you to the right local pages.
Manasum Senior Living
Manasum Senior Living is a Bengaluru operator of retirement communities, with projects in Bangalore and Goa. This listing describes the brand rather than a single address, so ask our advisors which Manasum community it refers to before you visit. What the listing shows:

How North Bangalore divides for senior living
- Inner north (Hebbal, Sanjaynagar, Mathikere). Closest to M S Ramaiah, Aster CMI, Manipal Hospital Hebbal and the Baptist Hospital. Best for seniors who need nursing or frequent hospital visits.
- North-east (Nagavara, HBR Layout, Kothanur, Hennur). The densest cluster of assisted living and dementia care homes, near Manyata Tech Park.
- Yelahanka and the airport road. Calmer and greener, with a mix of private care homes and charitable homes run by trusts and religious congregations.
- Devanahalli and Nandi Hills. Large townships and villa communities for active, independent seniors, with the airport close by but the city an hour or more away.
A useful rule of thumb: pick the belt nearest to the child who will visit most often, then choose the home within it. In Bengaluru traffic, a home that is 10 km from that child will be visited far more often than a better-equipped one 30 km away.
The whole region benefits from the Bellary Road (NH 44), the Outer Ring Road and the airport, which makes it the easiest part of Bengaluru for NRI families to visit.
Senior living costs in North Bangalore
