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

Unfortunately crime rates are on the rise in the area and over the last year there has been a large increase of successful/attempted break ins on resident’s cars when parked on street. The bike shed was recently broken into and someone was able to walk in to the reception and stole parcels that had been delivered on the day that reception is unmanned. Shops, bars and restaurants are within walking distance along with the city centre and the train station. Downsides are that there is limited on street parking and heavy traffic in the area.

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

We recently moved into this building and we’re really enjoying it so far. The apartment is modern, and there are plenty of facilities, including a gym and communal spaces. It’s very central, with the MK shopping centre right across the street. The neighbours are also very friendly. I also find it convenient to have a pet sitter living in the building. Overall, we’re very happy living here.

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

Very helpful and responsive. They try to find a solution as quick as possible.

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

The only negative aspect is that we don’t have the option to open the main door from the intercom. We have to go downstairs to let people in, which isn’t very convenient when you have a baby. However, the management team is so kind and helpful that it makes it easy to overlook this detail.
