What about similarly populated cities?
- White Rock, Canada
- Stryi, Ukraine
- Siswa Bazar, India
- Чапаева, Belarus
- Panevėžys, Lithuania
- Yellandu, India
While White Rock and Чапаева both built increasingly disconnected streets from 1975 through 1991-2005, then improved, Sohna built increasingly disconnected streets over time in new street additions. For the full street network, though, all three cities follow the same trend. Sohna and White Rock have been growing further apart in their street-network character since 1975.
