Houses next to the railway tracks... noisy or convenient?
Hi neighbours, we're keen to talk to people who live near a busy railway line - commuter or freight - about the pros and cons of the location.
What's the noise disturbance like? Do you notice it?
Was your house cheaper than others in the area?
Is the easy access to transport the reason you bought there?
If you can answer any of those questions, we'd love to hear from you. Please leave a comment or email homed@stuff.co.nz with your name and details. Have a great day!
Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?

MISSING CAT
Hey neighbours,
Koco my black cat is missing, from Ilam Road. It's been 11 days now, since 12/11/24. She's definitely not under the house or hiding anywhere and we've done everything we can to bring her home at this stage, but will always appreciate advice or other ideas. Before she went missing she was coming home and eating and cuddling etc every day, morning, night, and throughout. If anyone sees her anywhere we'd really appreciate a message :) Thank you so much!
-She's microchipped, three years old, wearing (could have lost) a red studded collar with my number and her name attached to a red heart name tag.
We really miss her 😢💔
