A guide to living in Edinburgh

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

The connectivity is really good, the bus stop is nearby and the tram is also 10-15 minutes walk. I like that we have a big park nearby as well though supermarkets are a bit far but not far enough to be called an inconvenience.

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

I've felt that most of the management team are mostly clueless about a lot of things, they are generally respectful but clueless.

The local area is very convenient, with a good selection of shops, restaurants, cafés and open spaces within easy reach. Public transport links are generally very good, making it easy to get around without relying on a car. The street itself is relatively quiet and pleasant, although parking can sometimes be limited, particularly at busier times.
