Both areas have Pune Metro access. Metro commuters can use a ₹855/month pass from either, making transport cost nearly equal between them. In that case, rent and walkable daily infrastructure (grocery, dining, gym) are the main differentiators.
Viman Nagar has the clear rent advantage — ₹4,000 cheaper per month for 2BHK.
