Lifestyle variations majorly affect the career choices of north and south Chennai students,
which majorly highlights the cultural influences and their surroundings which shape career
aspirations and their daily lives. Chennai, a metropolitan city with distinct disparities, presents
a contrasting landscape of north and south Chennai. South Chennai is known for its affluent
neighbourhoods and better access to educational institutions. While north Chennai is known
for its industrial zones and working-class communities. Through qualitative and quantitative
research methods, this study explores the factors influencing students career choices. This
research contributes to the broader understanding of social stratification and educational
inequalities in urban settings. The findings reveal the significant disparities in career
aspirations, access to higher education and lifestyle preferences between the two regions. It
bridges the educational economic divide ensuring the equal opportunities among Chennai.
