Residents grapple with a cacophony of noise, with loud music and parties being the most prevalent issues, contributing to a total of 97 noise-related complaints in the past year.

These issues can lead to inconvenient and uncomfortable living conditions, especially during colder months. Furthermore, blocked fire hydrants, with 14 complaints, pose a significant safety risk, as they could hamper the efforts of firefighters in case of an emergency. Illegal dumping and damaged trees also contribute to the overall decline in the quality of life on the street.
