A guide to living in Hertfordshire

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

Living in my local area has both its positives and negatives. On the plus side, there’s a great variety of local shops, cafes, and restaurants, many of which are independently owned and offer quality food and service. The nearby open spaces are well-maintained and perfect for families and outdoor activities. Transport links are generally convenient, with buses and trains running regularly, although peak-hour services can get quite crowded. On my street, parking can be a challenge, especially in the evenings, and traffic noise can sometimes be noticeable. Bin collections are fairly reliable, but there have been occasional delays. Anti-social behaviour is rare, making the area feel safe overall.

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

Building management has generally responded promptly and professionally to any issues raised, though there is room for improvement in communication and follow-up in some cases.

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

One thing I wish I had known before moving in is how limited the visitor parking would be—it’s often full, especially on weekends, which can be frustrating for guests. Also, noise from nearby construction wasn’t mentioned during the viewing and can be disruptive at times. I’d recommend new neighbours ask about any upcoming developments in the area and double-check the parking arrangements if they plan to have frequent visitors.
