Local Crescent, M5

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

There are a plethora of transport links near by to local crescent as well as cute coffee shops and a few restaurants. Unfortunately there is quite often cars in the area being broken into or being robbed for parts, as well as many people struggling to park. Local crescent isn’t very secure with concierge letting anybody walk in and out of the building without a key no questions asked and if the wind blows the door open they will often just leave it unlocked and wide open…. Since it was reported that a group of boys had gotten in and were trying to open people’s doors a few weeks ago I haven’t felt the level of safety I should for a building with 24 hour concierge.

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

That the facilities are always broken you can find better

What is the best feature of your home:

The bin chute if it works ( it hasn’t got 2 months )

A decent area if you don't mind walking or taking the bus- strange that such a popular, developing area doesn't have a tram stop near by! The closest would be Market street or St peters' square; a 40 minute walk away... or you can take the bus. The only let down of the area really, as there is lots close by.

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

I wish I had known the construction of the Oxbow building would be taking place! Constant noise, men on the scaffolding which eliminates privacy and completely blocked all the sun and views of the city.

What is the best feature of your home:

Amenities- especially the cinema rooms and swimming pool, a shame you can't use it it just any point as there has to be a lifeguard on duty.
