When investing in Apartments in Chennai, it is important to check out the neighbourhood too. A home is a lifetime commitment and you want to land in a place that you feel safe and comfortable in. A city like Chennai is filled with diverse culture and economic groups. Most people tend to gravitate towards areas that are populated with people with a similar lifestyle that you want for yourself and the family. 

Here are a few reasons why moving into a good neighbourhood is important for a truly great life. 

Dream Lifestyle:

You have a vision in your head about the life that you want to lead. It is wise to move into a neighbourhood where the rest of the residents also prefer the same kind of lifestyle. For families that want to live in the heart of the city, luxury apartments in gated communities are the best option. The rest of the residents will have a near identical lifestyle, so you can blend into the place seamlessly. They have great amenities that are perfect for yourself, but especially great for the kids. 

Pride in the Address:

There is something quite powerful in living in a great neighbourhood. The recognition that comes from living in a certain neighbourhood, brings automatic access to niche social circles. Such places have residents and renters who care about the community and the space they live in. There is better support for clearing community issues. Be it the pothole on the road outside or an electric failure, things get taken care of in a jiffy, just for the name and reputation of the neighbourhood. 

Low Crime Rate: 

A great neighbourhood, can be easily identified by low or a declining crime rate. You have assured safety for you and your family. Plus the apartments in Chennai in a good neighbourhood are equipped with 24×7 security, CCTV monitoring and restricted access. This keeps strangers from entering the premises without explicit permissions authorised by a resident. You know who goes in and out of the building and this prevents crime from happening. There are also police monitoring the roads and streets. The streets are also equipped with CCTV security in a nice neighbourhood. 

Great Schools for the kids:

Better neighbourhoods are sought after by educational institutions. The children are exposed to other kids from a similar background at such schools. It’s not just schools, as some areas in Chennai are also close to long established colleges and universities. These are usually located within walking distance or a short drive from home. The schools are not just good for your kids, but are great for property values in the neighbourhood too. The house acquires good appreciation and resale value over the years. 

Access to healthcare:

A good neighbourhood has access to emergency facilities like healthcare. They can be within a walking distance or within a short drive, but no farther than that. This is important for families that have children and the elderly in the family unit, as they are more prone to health issues. You don’t want to be stuck in some back road that is an hour away from the nearest healthcare facility. 

Access to public transport:

While everyone has their own vehicles, it is important for a good neighbourhood to have access to public transport like the metro, railways, bus stand, and airport. This gives you a wide variety of travel options to choose from. You needn’t bother driving everywhere and outstation travel is a breeze, when you can get to the airport or railways station on time. 

Family friendly neighbourhood:

The qualities of a good neighbourhood include being family friendly. Apartments in Chennai can give you a secure social circle. Carpooling, and playmates for your children are easily found and are reliable to a fault. The elders of the family have other elderly people for company, and a relaxed evening walk and conversation. You can also plan events and travel with your neighbours, who share similar tastes and affordability.
