==Location== Situated between Ambattur Industrial Estate, Avadi and Thiruverkadu, Ayappakkam developed as a residential area from 1990, after Tamil Nadu Housing Board quarters came up. Unlike Ambattur (houses more industrial units), Ayappakkam is predominantly a residential area and it connects with the city, via Anna Nagar, Mogappair, Nolambur, Athipet and Maduravoyal, through Poonamallee High Road, Chennai-Tiruvallur High (CTH) Road and Ambattur Industrial Estate Road.There is a famous temple named sri panchanmuga anjaneyar temple in ayappa nagar of ayappakkam.
