Javascript – How to check if value of a key exists of an array in another array

I have two arrays-

var arr1=  [
{
  VILLAGES_NAME: 'Chozuba Vill.',
  VI_ID: 269292,
  VI_SUBDIST_ID: 1806
},
{
  VILLAGES_NAME: 'Thevopisu',
  VI_ID: 269381,
  VI_SUBDIST_ID: 1806
},
{
  VILLAGES_NAME: 'Chozubasa (UR)',
  VI_ID: 269293,
  VI_SUBDIST_ID: 1806
}
  ];



let arr2=[
{
  LOCALITIES_NAME: 'CHOZUBA PART TWO',
  LOCALITY_ID: 301,
  VILLAGE_ID: 269292
},
{
  LOCALITIES_NAME: 'CHOZUBA PART ONE',
  LOCALITY_ID: 300,
  VILLAGE_ID: 269292
}
  ];

I want to check while looping arr1 if value of VI_ID of arr1 is matching anywhere in VILLAGE_ID of arr2.

This is what I have tried till now but not getting expected result.

 for(let i=0;i<arr1.length;i++)
  {
      if(arr2.includes(arr1[i].VI_ID))
      {
           console.log(arr1[i].VILLAGES_NAME)
      }
      
  }

    You can’t do it with only one for loop without changing one of the arrays type. For example:

    var arr1 = [
  {
    VILLAGES_NAME: 'Chozuba Vill.',
    VI_ID: 269292,
    VI_SUBDIST_ID: 1806
  },
  {
    VILLAGES_NAME: 'Thevopisu',
    VI_ID: 269381,
    VI_SUBDIST_ID: 1806
  },
  {
    VILLAGES_NAME: 'Chozubasa (UR)',
    VI_ID: 269293,
    VI_SUBDIST_ID: 1806
  }
];

let arr2 = [
  {
    LOCALITIES_NAME: 'CHOZUBA PART TWO',
    LOCALITY_ID: 301,
    VILLAGE_ID: 269292
  },
  {
    LOCALITIES_NAME: 'CHOZUBA PART ONE',
    LOCALITY_ID: 300,
    VILLAGE_ID: 269292
  }
];

const villageIdSet = new Set(arr2.map(item => item.VILLAGE_ID));

const matchedItems = arr1.filter(item => villageIdSet.has(item.VI_ID));

console.log(matchedItems);

    Replace the condition with this one:

    if (arr2.some(sth=> sth.VILLAGE_ID === arr1[i].VI_ID)) {
    ...
  }
