Puthagaram has developed from being a rural area along the Redhills high road to become one of the important residential localities of Chennai. It was a village panchayat till October 2011.Now as per a G.O., Puthagaram has become a part of the zone 3, Madhavaram, of the Chennai Corporation.Though Puthagaram has escalated itself from being a less-known suburb to a nominally decent suburban centre it still has not grown on par with the other localities in Chennai itself. For instance it still lacks proper roads and connectivity albeit the Corporation of Chennai has been carrying on various infrastructure projects in full-swing which are expected to reach completion soon.
A possible expansion of Chennai city limits from 174 km2 to 430 km2 may require merger of several suburbs, and Puthagaram panchayath is likely to be detached from Madhavaram. [1]

North Chennai is a geographic term used to refer to the northern part of Chennai city. Though its definition has varied with time and context, it is generally accepted among historians that North Chennai is used for the part of Chennai city situated north of the Coovum River. Encompassing the Fort St George and Georgetown areas from which the city originated, North Chennai is generally considered an area of stagnant growth, but now it is developing that has already reached saturation as a real estate choice. The area is generally notorious for its thick population, narrow roads, poor infrastructure, and high incidence of crime. This characterization is, however, limited to older neighbourhoods close to the sea coast as new areas to the west, like Kilpauk, Anna Nagar, Avadi and Ambattur have good standards of living and acquired desirability as residential areas.
