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

The area is very convenient for Dyce and the City with good transport links. It's quiet in the block I live in - the airport is close but I actually love the noise of the planes having been brought up near an air base! There are lovely walks by the trees and river very closeby - lots of greenery beauty and being surrounded by wonderful Nature is good for the soul.

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

Responded extremely well by all the staff, past and present - they've all have been polite, patient, friendly and very helpful to me at all times.

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

There's nothing I can add - my viewing went well and I had read about Dandara rentals before I arranged to view so I don't feel I needed any additional insight prior to my move.

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

The overall experience of the area has been positive. Having an M&S nearby was a great convenience, so it is disappointing to hear that it is closing down. Bin collections have generally been reliable, and parking availability is good. During my time living there, I did not encounter any anti-social behaviour, and ground traffic noise has been minimal. The area itself is green and well maintained, which is nice. There are no bars or restaurants in the area, but I'm not bothered with that.

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

I haven't encountered any problems since lived there. One of my windows needs cleaning but they're currently working on this.

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

I can't think of anything specific, everything is well as I expected it to be.

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

We moved here from central Aberdeen and actually prefer this area much more. The atmosphere feels calmer, there are plenty of nice places to walk nearby, and P&J Live is very convenient to have close by. One thing to know is that it can be a little noisy during the day because of planes and helicopters, but in a way it adds to the character of the area rather than being a major issue.

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

The area offers an excellent range of local shops, restaurants, cafés and pubs, providing plenty of choice for day-to-day needs as well as socialising and dining out. There are also several attractive open spaces, parks and walking routes nearby, making it easy to enjoy the outdoors. Transport links are convenient, with good road connections and access to public transport options that make commuting and travelling straightforward. Living her is very pleasant, with a friendly atmosphere, ample parking availability, reliable bin collections and generally low levels of traffic noise. The area feels safe, well maintained and is a great place to live. I will truly miss living here.

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

Yes. All issues that I have required fixing were resolved by management quickly.
