Nizampet lies to the northwestern end of Hyderabad City. It is one of the fastest-growing suburbs around the IT corridor of Hyderabad, because of its affordability and relatively pollution-free environment and despite its water scarcity. In 2018, the government provided municipal water to the area which caused prices to rise.

People living at Nizampet and Nizampet Village brought this problem to Govt authorities several times but no action has been taken so far.

The roads used to be pathetic some time ago, but thanks to the proactive lead taken by the local resident groups from Nizampet and Nizampet Village, no more struggles with bad roads but except in the rainy season when the roads are flooded in many areas due to inadequate infrastucture.

Telangana Government is working on illegal constitutions made by builder, developers, leaders and local authorities. Now this concern has been with High Court, Govt. officials are awaiting for the High Court Orders to perform the action and streamline the Nizampet and Nizampet Village. HYDRAA, the cities authority which protects government properties had started rejuvinating nearby lakes thus helping with the groundwater problems faced by the local populace.
