What about similarly populated cities?
In new street additions, Hunsur fluctuated in its street-construction patterns, while Dahua built increasingly disconnected streets from 1975 through 1976-1990, then improved and Mangrol built increasingly disconnected streets over time. Looking at the full network, Dahua and Mangrol both became progressively more disconnected, while Hunsur fluctuated in connectivity. Notably, Hunsur had a more connected network than Dahua in 1975 but the two have since reversed their relative ranking.
