Ratings & Reviews of Borivali West, Mumbai 400092

Positives: I stayed for some time in Borivali West and discovered it to be an even balance of city convenience and nature. The locality was well connected with Borivali West station being a hub station on the Western Line, while roads such as Link Road and Western Express Highway facilitated easy commuting. The presence of the Sanjay Gandhi National Park nearby provided a welcome green relief. Additionally, there were enough malls, schools, and hospitals at hand. Negatives: But there were a few negatives. Peak-hour traffic jams were a usual problem, and the locality tended to become very crowded. Moreover, construction work at times caused pollution in the form of noise and dust. Finally, although the area had access to many amenities, the cost of living there was fairly high.

Positives: I enjoy its combination of vibrant urban living and serene green oases. The positive aspects of the area include convenient train connectivity at Borivali station and close road connections to Western Express Highway, fast accessibility to Gorai beach and Sanjay Gandhi National Park for weekend strolls, shops, hospitals, and schools aplenty in the vicinity, and numerous rental options for short-term stays. Short distances are easily covered by local buses and rickshaws, and the area has a friendly community spirit. Negatives: Some of these are low-lying roads that get waterlogged during the monsoon. Parking is also limited and costly; some of the roads have potholes and continuous construction noise. All these notwithstanding, I find this place comfortable due to the parks and local markets. I am happy that I selected this locality for now.

Positives: Proximity to Sanjay Gandhi National Park offers green spaces for recreation to residents. Well-developed infrastructure includes wide roads and easy access through the Borivali railway station. Educational establishments such as St. Francis D'Assisi and Don Bosco, and medical facilities such as Lotus and Apex hospitals, are added advantages of convenience. Retail outlets such as Zoom Plaza offer shopping malls that are easily accessible. Negatives: There is waterlogging in some areas of Borivali West during the monsoon, causing temporary discomfort. Moreover, though the area is safe, traffic jams at peak hours can prove to be a problem. All in all, Borivali West is still an attractive place for end users as well as investors.

Positives: One of the biggest plus points of staying here is how close you are to the lush green Sanjay Gandhi National Park. This does add a special touch to the look and feel of the locality. Also, there are many sightseeing places nearby which you can visit on the weekends. There is a strong community-oriented lifestyle here, along with very vibrant and active markets. The Western Express Highway and SV Road are accessible too, along with the dedicated railway station. Not much to complain about here. Negatives: The only thing that can be improved is the overall cleanliness of some stretches and also the power cuts that happen at peak times.

Positives: Having a flat here is actually fulfilling. We're a prosperous suburb, and the amazing connectivity is our greatest gain, courtesy of the Borivali railway station, Link Road, and Western Express Highway, making city traveling convenient. I also appreciate that the Sanjay Gandhi National Park lies in our backyard literally, providing a precious green lung in Mumbai. Along with good shopping at malls such as Raghuleela Mega Mall, and excellent schools nearby. Negatives: But the fast development here entails enormous headaches. The region is getting vastly congested, and that means heavy traffic jams. Furthermore, incessant, uncontrolled construction work creates considerable noise and dust pollution. It is our second major disadvantage we face everyday.
