The parking is very limited and must be on a very long waitlist.

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:

Lots of shops and restaurants nearby. Transport very good and affordable for uni! Five ways is very close and takes us straight there. The street can be loud on weekends and lots of traffic until very late.

The hot water and the back door being down for several months was annoying but other than that it’s fine

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:

Living in my local area has both positives and negatives. On the plus side, there’s a decent range of local shops, cafes, and restaurants, with a mix of independent and chain options. Several green spaces nearby make it easy to enjoy nature or go for a walk, especially on weekends. Public transport is fairly reliable, with regular buses and train services that connect well to the city centre. However, services can be delayed during peak times or in bad weather. On the downside, parking on my street is quite limited, especially in the evenings, and bin collections can be inconsistent. There’s occasional traffic noise and some issues with anti-social behaviour on weekends, particularly from nearby bars. Still, it’s generally a safe and convenient area to live in.

How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:

Building management has been generally responsive to urgent issues, but slower to act on minor or non-urgent concerns. Communication is polite, though follow-ups are sometimes needed to ensure resolution.

Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:

I wish I had known how limited the on-street parking can be, especially in the evenings—it often fills up quickly. Also, while the building is mostly quiet, noise from nearby bars can be disruptive on weekends. A helpful tip: get familiar with the bin collection schedule early on, as it’s not clearly communicated and can be inconsistent. For new neighbours, joining the residents’ WhatsApp group has been really useful for updates and building-related advice.

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:

The location is fantastic—close to shops, cafes, and transport links which makes everyday life really convenient. There’s a great balance between calm, green spaces and a lively atmosphere. Occasionally, street noise can be noticeable during weekends, but nothing disruptive. Overall, it’s a great area to live in with a strong sense of community and good amenities nearby.

How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:

Shari has always been amazing at dealing with any problems I had—big or small. She would respond quickly, always with a positive attitude, and made sure everything was resolved without delay. Her efficiency and kindness made a real difference.

Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:

I wish I had known how easy and seamless everything would be once I settled in. I spent so much time worrying about the move and adjusting, but everything—from the facilities to the community vibe—fell into place so naturally. It would’ve saved me a lot of overthinking!
