Malamaddi[1] is a residential area in the city of Dharwad, in the Indian state of Karnataka. It is located near the Dharwad city railway station. The area is mainly middle-class. It was developed for independent houses (bungalows) with a courtyard and kitchen garden. This type of layout led to friendship among dwellers and harmony, where people used to know not only neighbours, but the entire locality.
