Ratings & Reviews of Andheri West, Mumbai

Positives: In all honesty, life in Andheri West was pure fun, though it was only for a while. It was so convenient with the Metro, local railway station, and Western Express Highway in close proximity, that the entire city, including the airport, felt within easy reach. And with the entertainment and media studios around, not to mention fantastic nightlife venues such as Lokhandwala, the entire region ended up feeling alive and always active. Negatives: Nevertheless, the glamour had some drawbacks. The two significant drawbacks were certainly the expense and the traffic. Rent rates were ridiculously high, and the sheer volume of people everywhere rendered it extremely noisy. Worse still, the traffic jams during peak periods along SV Road were a nightmare, and I always had trouble finding any legal street parking.

Positives: I recently began renting in the vicinity of DN Nagar, and I really appreciate the convenience of life here in Andheri West. The biggest advantages are the number of food, shopping, and entertainment options. I feel like something is always going on. Add to that the hassle-free connectivity through the Metro and Western Railway, which makes travelling to work and social hubs convenient, and that's why I chose this place. Negatives: On the other hand, this convenience has a massive price tag. The rental cost is outrageous. My block of flats always experiences low water pressure, particularly in the mornings. Furthermore, the internal link roads are extremely jammed, and the whole noise pollution, particularly near the main junction. I may not remain here in the long run because of the price.

Good locality with great connectivity and great lifestyle standards...

Positives: The connectivity in this location is wonderful Andheri Railway Station, Versova Metro, and Western Express Highway are close by. The locality is filled with some of the best schools in town such as Ryan Global and St. Louis Convent, and some of the best hospitals such as Kokilaben and Seven Hills in proximity. Infinity Mall, Citi Mall, and Versova Beach within a short driving distance. The Oberoi, Adani, and Godrej residential developments provide luxurious living in a quiet neighborhood. Negatives: On the negative side, traffic gets horrible during rush hours, and monsoon waterlogging happens. Some roads also require good maintenance. All in all, I give Andheri West 5 stars it's really a nice place to stay.

Positives: I like the blend of beach, markets and urban life. I like convenient travel from Andheri railway station and Versova–Ghatkopar metro line, which makes east–west journeys a lot quicker. Lokhandwala market, Versova Beach, restaurants, malls and movie studios are nearby, so nights out and shopping are convenient. Good schools and hospitals are within short drives, and new residential towers maintain the area clean. Negatives: Two negatives I experience are heavy traffic and tight parking during peak hours, and frequent monsoon waterlogging that occasionally shuts the Andheri subway. Otherwise, I am safe and content here. The area is vibrant, convenient and friendly. I suggest Andheri West to young professionals and young families looking for city zest with easy weekend choices within reach.

Positives: Nothing much to complain about while staying here. The area is very posh, and property rates have gone up tremendously in the last few years. Also, don’t forget, the area includes the prime Lokhandwala Complex and also Versova. You can visit the beach and enjoy the pristine ambience. Lots of markets and shopping options, along with cafes, restaurants, clinics, etc. Many film and television stars also stay here, adding to the glamor value of the neighborhood. WEH and SV Road are nearby, and the airport is also quite nearby. Gokhale Road reconstruction has been a positive thing for the locality. Negatives: Nothing that I can find. The only thing is that some market areas are crowded in the peak evening hours.

Positives: I found Andheri West quite alive and accessible. The connectivity was superb, Andheri Railway Station, Versova Metro, Western Express Highway, SV Road, Link Road all made it convenient to reach anywhere. Top schools, good hospitals, malls such as Infiniti, Citi etc., restaurants, media houses were also present. Luxury and mid-segment housing projects by renowned builders provided me with an abundance of options. Negatives: Some roads were waterlogged severely during the monsoon, drainage was poor. Internal roads and walkways used to have potholes. Traffic was heavy on SV Road and near the station during rush hours. Additionally, rent and property prices were extremely high, and parking was always a hassle everywhere.

Positives: I shifted here because it is second to none to work in Mumbai's media and cinema city. Honestly, I must say, the convenience here is just too good. The connectivity is a lifesaver; we have the local train, Versova Metro, and the Western Express Highway within reach, and traveling is so easy. And then there's the nightlife, Lokhandwala Market, and good hospitals like Kokilaben making it a complete, lively place to live. Negatives: But all this costs a fortune. The rent is through the roof, and you have these small flats for that price. Traffic is a nightmare, and at SV Road during rush hours is no joke. The greatest infrastructure complaint is the drainage; come monsoon, the street junctions are waterlogged in no time, and potholes show up.

Positives: This area is vibrant and well-networked. I have a house here and I prefer easy proximity to the suburban railway, metro routes, JVLR and Western Express Highway, and the airport is just around 8–10 km away, so it is convenient to travel. Shopping and dining out are wonderful with Lokhandwala, Infiniti Mall and lots of cafes around, and quality schools and hospitals make everyday life easy. Negatives: Negatives irritate me at times. Monsoon waterlogging, particularly close to the Andheri subway. It creates sudden traffic jams and blockages. Living expenses and property prices here are high relative to more suburbs. In spite of these problems, connectivity, social lifestyle and consistent investment demand render it an extremely practical location to have a house.

Positives: I love living in Andheri West. I’m an owner here and honestly it’s hard to beat the connectivity and energy. The metro, local trains and easy access to the Western Express Highway make commuting simple, and the airport is just a short drive away, which is super convenient. The neighbourhood is filled with good schools, hospitals, shopping malls, restaurants and gyms, so all that I require is within easy reach and the social scene is active and diverse. Negatives: If I had to choose one negative, it's parking and traffic; rush hour is a nightmare and parking is costly or unavailable. Nevertheless, for work, lifestyle and long-term investment, this site receives a five-star from me.

Positives: Being a tenant, I've enjoyed the amazing connectivity—the local train and metro are literally here, and my work commute is a walk in the park. The location is a full package with great restaurants, malls such as Infinity, and also Versova Beach within walking distance for that evening stroll. All amenities, grocery stores, to world-class hospitals such as Kokilaben are at hand. Negatives: The disadvantage is certainly the traffic, which can be a real nightmare during rush hours. And also, the Andheri subway is very famous for waterlogging during the monsoon, so you always have to make travel plans. Parking is a huge headache. It's always tough to find space for your vehicle. But overall, the lively lifestyle

Positives: I always believed Andheri West was the ideal blend of glamour and convenience. I enjoyed being near the Versova beach and having plenty of cafes and restaurants within reach. The connectivity was excellent, with the Metro, railway station, and Link Road making it a cinch to travel around the city for work or play. It was like a self-sustaining hub, with all that I might possibly need a stone's throw away. Negatives: Though, the constant din of all that construction was a major issue, and it felt like something new was always going up. We also got bad waterlogging during every monsoon and parking was always a problem. While the location had so much to give, the prices made it an actual pinch.

Positives: I have been an owner here for a while now and have to say, it's the best of both worlds. The social life is alive with great cafes, restaurants, and shopping places in Lokhandwala. The metro and local train connectivity is just top class, and it makes it so convenient to get anywhere in the city for work or play. We' have got everything we need all here, from schools to hospitals, and there's that community feel. Negatives: The are has extremely little downside. It is quite expensive to live there, even the everyday things cost more in comparison to the rest of Mumbai.
