While mostly grouped under [[South Chennai]], Central Chennai is a term which has gained currency in recent times due to the rapid expansion of the city southwards. Covering the eastern neighbourhoods of [[Royapettah]], [[Chepauk]], [[Teynampet]], [[Alwarpet]], [[Mylapore]], [[Triplicane]] and [[Mandaveli]] and the western neighbourhoods of [[Nungambakkam]], [[Kodambakkam]], [[Vadapalani]], [[Virugambakkam]], [[Valasaravakkam]], [[Mambalam]], [[T. Nagar]], [[Nandanam]] and [[Saidapet]], Central Chennai is largely upper class-upper middle class. The eastern part is largely upper class with two of the costliest pieces of real estate - the [[Boat Club Road]] and [[Poes Garden]] being located here while the western part is mainly middle class. Kodambakkam is the location of the Tamil film industry or [[Kollywood]].<br /> <br /> Central Chennai is made of old and well-established residential areas and is mostly overlooked by IT companies due to scarcity of vacant land and high real estate prices. The Central Chennai zone, with its head office at Ambattur, was included Ayanavaram, Aminjikarai, Maduravoyal, guindy and Egmore taluks. Mambalam is commonly called as one of the oldest village near Chennai.<br /> {{cn|date=February 2015}}<br /> <br /> {{Chennai topics}}<br /> <br /> {{coord missing|Tamil Nadu}}<br /> <br /> [[Category:Geography of Chennai]]<br /> <br /> {{Chennai-geo-stub}}</div>
