Dharampur and Kaprada both are the taluka of Valsad District which is situated in the south Gujarat, the border of Maharashtra and Gujarat.
In this areas the people are mostly living in the rural area. The majority of people living in this area is scheduled tribe (St).
The whole dynamic of rural livelihood are the different from the urban livelihood. There are lots of factors which they are discriminate the village lifestyle and the urban lifestyle.
As I talk before the village lifestyle is different from the urban lifestyle. There are people who live in village they quite different from the behavior, speaking, wearing clothes.
The people of villages are always helpful to each other. the innocent people of villages I have ever seen in urban area.
The whole area is surrounded by the hills and the forest. The main profession of villages people are farming.
Dharampur and Kaprada village people they also go vapi,Valsad,Nashik,silvassa for a labour work. Sometimes they migrate one place to other place for searching a job or work.
I have seen that they do a labour work for a short time and they earn a decent amount of money for live.
People in rural areas earn their living in various ways some work on farm while other earn their living on non farm activities.
Working on farm involves such as preparing the land, sowing weeding and harvesting of crops.
They all depends on the nature for the growth of crops . They do farming only for four months of monsoon season .hence they do a farm activity for a certain period of time . Rest of season they do a labour work.
