Communication Hill - Pros/Cons

The homes are good value compared to elsewhere, so I need good reasons to NOT live there. I feel like I'll have a large, quality home with a good view, but I'm still stuck on a hill and I'll always need to go up and down that hill.

I can't walk anywhere except that hill, unless I want to walk all the way down and up again. There's only one plaza below that's not too interesting. Also, is the asbestos an issue for walking around or gardening? There's still plenty of construction going on and will be for a while.

Anyone live there and can tell me what irritates them with living up there? There's the William Manly side and the Veiria Park side. Which is better? or worse?
