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

The development is central - close to Westfield. Because the park is public there is a lot of anti social behaviour. Very noisy. But, the running of the complex is very smooth, the concierge staff are a joy. Bin rooms are great as we don’t have bins outside our doors. Very efficient buildings. Great for dog owners. Our community is very strong and we help each other out and socialize.

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

The building manager is efficient in some areas. But the contact person has changed four times in three years due to people leaving. So things get left for weeks.
