Residents here contend with a myriad of issues, with the most prominent being noise pollution. The street echoes with a relentless symphony of disruptions, with loud music and parties being the leading culprits, totaling over 650 complaints.

The structures themselves are not immune to decay; complaints about unsound floors, walls, ceilings, and peeling paint or plaster suggest that many buildings on Post Avenue may be in dire need of repairs.
