Overall, Bastion is a relatively pleasant neighbourhood. There are many amenities nearby, including many educational institutions and opportunities for the younger generation. There is also a nice shopping centre where all necessities can be found. However, the houses themselves are certainly not winning any beauty prizes, and there is also a lot of litter on the streets. Some parts of the neighbourhood are not well maintained, even though this is known to the government. Safety is fine, but could certainly be improved with more lighting and accessibility. Fortunately, public transport stops nearby, and the neighbourhood is easy to find for visitors. Overall, Bastion is a neighbourhood that is not yet optimal, but certainly has potential.
