Changing demographics

change

There has been an influx of migrants from other states into the town that has also changed the demographic makeup of the town , also causing migrants who are mostly daily wage labourers to move into B.O.C Road .[25] The mostly homogenous demographic makeup is slowly diversifying , largely owing to Perumbavoor's industrial importance.[26]

Future developmental projects surrounding the area

change

There are currently plans for a Perumbavoor-Rayamangalam road near KSRTC bus stand and passes by Iringole Kavu to reach Aluva-Munnar Road which later reaches MC Road near the Vallam bridge which would increase connectivity through B.O.C Road . Perumbavoor MLA Eldhose Kunnapilly [27] spoke about the industrial significance of Perumbavoor's plywood and furniture industry and how this would increase connectivity to the eastern part of Ernakulam.[28]
