Hi. Yes, it is very true that the recent burglaries in Kadavanthra are subjected to independent houses, no apartment complex has been broken into till date. I guess the security makes a lot of difference. So I think you can definitely consider getting your parents an apartment in Kadavanthra, looking at all its convenience factors. There are auto stands and bus stands at every nook and corner. A number of well known hospitals like Indira Gandhi Co-op Hospital and Medical Trust are in proximity. Same goes for department stores, ATMs, banks, parks, post offices and railways stations.

Hello. I have lived in Kadavanthra for the last 5 years and I do agree with them, there have been burglars on the go for a while now, but take note that only independent houses have been broken into. Since you plan on getting your parents an apartment, I don't think there should be a reason to worry as security will be there at all times. Well known hospitals like the Indira Gandhi Co-op Hospital and Medical Trust are in the locality. Public transport - autos, buses, trains are available without much difficulty considering the nearest railway station is just 2 km away and auto/bus stands are there at almost every corner of the locality. You will also find banks, ATMs, supermarkets, post offices, parks, restaurants and places of worship in and around the area.

Hey there. To begin with, Kadavanthra does have good residential areas. But I have heard of thefts in houses in the area and I don't know how safe it will be for two elderly people to stay on their own. Though, since you're getting an apartment for them, things should be fine as there will be security all the time. Check up thoroughly regarding this before you proceed to invest there. Apart from that, living in Kadavanthra would be very convenient for them as hospitals, ATMs, supermarkets, banks, railway stations, post offices, worship places are all in the locality. There are also parks where they can go for evening walks. Autos and buses are available super frequently, as there are a number of auto/bus stands in the area.

Hey. Kadavanthra is one of the city's most upbeat areas. There are residential areas here and it will be convenient for your parents to live in as there are many well known hospitals located in Kadavanthra. An add-on if they are religious, there are quite a few places of worship in the area as well. They do not have to go too far for ATMs, banks, supermarkets, restaurants, post offices etc. If they want to go for a jog in the morning, they can do so in the neighbouring parks. Public transport is easily available from the various auto/bus stands. However, I should tell you that I have recently heard of burglaries in Kadavanthra. If you're getting them an apartment, it should be fine considering there will be security 24*7. Just cross check and confirm before you make a final decision.
