Samathuvapuram in Periya Kattukulam was supposed to become functional in 2010, but the project was stalled despite construction of houses and infrastructure due to legal issues associated with its establishment. It has facilities like roads, playground, park, ration shop and overhead water tank.

The district already has seven Samathuvapurams at Inamkulathur, Kallakudi, Pannampatti, Ezurpatti, Thalambadi, Arachi and Cannanore. Project director Devanathan said all houses in other Samathuvapuram in the district are working.
