The city is well laid out and easier to drive than most Indian cities of its size, with parking generally available. The student areas are concentrated, which makes collecting several things in one trip realistic.

Indore, in Madhya Pradesh, has around 2 million people, which means a deep enough buyer pool that most things sell without having to travel far to hand them over. Bhopal, Jabalpur and Gwalior are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.
