Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
Co-op is super close, made last minute grocery shopping very easy. The local restaurant, Bohemia, closed unfortunately but having the co-op is nice. Alconbury village is relatively close by.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
I've only really communicated through email but every time I needed to contact Joe, he was responsive within a day and made it easy to call if I needed to.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
There is a food truck that often goes next to the co-op most weekend evenings and there is a sushi set up at the community center on the weekend!

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
Firstly northstowe is cb24 and these reviews everywhere are lies! Living in northstowe is hellish. We have no shops no decent places to socialise no doctors. It's boring and all the trouble in the area is worsening. Its just another mini ghetto like cambourne and Trumpington with lots of vulnerable ha tenants from temporary accommodation all over and refuges etc no support in place
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
The community try very hard but it's not working for many vulnerable people here
What is the best feature of your home:
The size if the properties are good which will draw people in but I fully regret moving here. Life is hellish here there's nothing to do without travelling far or sitting in a poxy portacabin community centre which frankly is a joke. The new tap and social bar come community general space is a rip off and to keep the social housing tenants seperate I'm sure! There's a clear 2 tier way of life here and the ghetto side and the posh side clash!
