2. Dharavi (Mumbai, India)
Dharavi, one of Asia’s largest slums, sprawls over 2.39 square kilometers and houses approximately 700,000 to 1,000,000 people. Notorious for its tight, labyrinthine alleys and insufficient sanitation, Dharavi is also a powerhouse of informal industry, with an estimated annual turnover of over $1 billion. Despite abject poverty, its resilience and entrepreneurial spirit attract global attention. (en.wikipedia.org)
