Noise and parking can be frustrating
Noise and parking issues make everyday life less comfortable for some residents.
One review points to an unusually large number of teenagers, describing frequent gatherings and difficulty using shared amenities because they’re occupied.

These quality-of-life issues come up alongside complaints that the community’s environment may not be as quiet as some people want.
