Positives: I had a short but pleasant experience in Thane West and enjoyed it as a well-balanced mix of suburban peace and urban comforts. The area benefited from great connectivity through Ghodbunder Road and the Eastern Express Highway, ensuring easy travel to Mumbai and Navi Mumbai. Access to prominent malls such as Viviana and Korum, good schools, and hospitals ensured convenient daily life. The region also had a number of parks, including the TMC Biodiversity Park and Hiranandani Joggers Park, where people could enjoy green areas to relax. Negatives: Nonetheless, there were some negatives. Peak-hour traffic congestion was a routine problem, particularly on Ghodbunder Road. Moreover, there were water supply inconsistencies in some areas that resulted in periodic shortages. Finally, the monsoon season introduced the issue of flooding in some areas of Thane West.
Positives: I shifted to Thane West recently, and I prefer taking evening walks around Upvan Lake. The area offers large malls such as Korum and Viviana, quality schools, hospitals and convenient local transport, so daily living seems to be easy. I prefer the nearby Yeoor Hills for short nature walks, and local festivals are held at the lake by families. There are mixed rentals available, and planned metro work promises even better connectivity soon. Negatives: But I find some issues: 1) traffic congestion on Ghodbunder Road and Pokhran Road during rush hours, 2) frequent water supply disruptions, 3) waterlogging in monsoon at certain low-lying areas, and 4) inadequate parking spaces near malls and markets. I am comfortable here as a temporary tenant, but I expect civic services to improve at the earliest.
Positives: Being a real estate agent for Thane West, I can assure you this area is a hidden gem. With great connectivity through Eastern Express Highway and future metro routes. Lodha World School and Sulochanadevi Singhania School, hence perfect for family people. Jupiter Hospital and Aayush Multispeciality Hospital are within easy access. Viviana and Korum provide ample choices for shopping. Availability of many parks and lakes gives the locality an added charm. Negatives: Certain parts of Thane West are flood-prone during the monsoon season. Furthermore, the area has been experiencing irregular supply of water, impacting the daily lives of people residing there. Although these issues persist, they are being tackled through infrastructural development and community efforts.
Positives: I cannot believe how much Thane West has changed since I purchased my apartment here. The development and convenience are just incredible. The biggest advantage is the fantastic connectivity. Ghodbunder Road is a lifeline, and the primary Thane station is so convenient, which is vital for my business trips. We have everything at our doorstep, from premier schools like Sulochanadevi Singhania for the children to giant shopping complexes like Viviana Mall. With the lovely Upvan Lake and Yeoor Hills nearby for weekend getaways. This is really a great investment and wonderful to bring up a family in. Negatives: The traffic during peak hours at the main intersections is a big headache. Navigating through the bottlenecks can add significant time to the daily journey. Secondly, the drainage system must be overhauled as some of the low-lying areas flood terribly.
Positives: It was always a very desirable area for me, and that’s the reason I invested here. I could not believe how the entire neighborhood has transformed over the years, especially along the Ghodbunder Road, which is a connectivity lifeline for me. So many glamorous projects have come up here from top builders, and the overall profile of the place has also got a much-needed facelift. Plenty of greenery and other planned civic infra are being put in place, which is something that I am also happy about. In fact, many business parks, lakes, schools, and shopping malls are close by. Negatives: If I have to point out one thing, then it would be the inconsistency in garbage disposal and the huge traffic jams in the peak hours.
Positives: I liked the connectivity, the buses, trains were convenient to use, and Ghodbunder and other highway roads connected me nicely to Mumbai and other suburbs. Lake Shore / Viviana Mall was a major advantage. I also preferred that numerous new residential complexes were on the way. And even with urban hustle-bustle, there were some green areas and lakes in the bigger Thane area which made walks on weekends more pleasant. Negatives: Traffic was dense nearly every night, which made even short trips time-consuming. Monsoon roads are not always a joy. The cost of living and rents had risen. Moreover, sometimes the maintenance and sanitation in some societies or public areas fell behind, which was disappointing.
Positives: When I am staying in Thane West for work, I appreciate lake-side strolls in Upvan Lake and convenient shopping at Viviana Mall. I have easy connectivity to Thane railway station for Central line trains, and various buses and autos operate in the locality. It is near some good schools, hospitals, parks and periodic markets, and apartment options cater to varying budgets. I also enjoy cafes and pleasant neighbours that make the community welcoming. The community is green and family-oriented. Negatives: Ghodbunder Road and the Eastern Express Highway are busy. Some parts are subject to water cuts or local flooding during the intense monsoon. Nevertheless, I feel comfortable, services are within reach, and life is easy here every day.
