Economic and industrial growth in recent decades has blurred the physical boundaries, and a small stretch of roughly 21 km of Daman-Vapi-Silvassa has almost become a single urban area. The town originally belonged to the community of Koli Patel, Desai (Anavil Bramhins) and other tribal castes. It is the largest industrial area in Asia in terms of small-scale industries, dominated by the chemical industry. It has been ranked among the most polluted places in the world, mainly due to its poor air and water quality caused by nearby industrial sites.
