Proximity to railway tracks, sewage, traffic, stagnant lake, etc. can pose serious health hazards in the years to come. 2. Low crime rate It is one of the critical factor in deciding the safety in the neighbourhood. Online research and information from the nearest police station will help you get an idea about the crime-related incidents in the area. 3. Family friendly Residential neighbourhood with families are highly favourable locations. With many families in the vicinity, it gives you opportunities to interact and also helps the children socialise.
