Cantonment / Fraser Town — anyone else feel let down after moving in?

Cantonment / Fraser Town – just moved here in March, and honestly, it's not what I expected. Everyone talks about the 'old Bengaluru charm' and central location, but the reality for me has been... different. I paid almost ₹1.6 Cr for a 2BHK, thinking it was justified for the prime area, but now I'm wondering if that's just a nostalgia tax. The traffic is absolutely brutal; getting anywhere during peak hours is a nightmare, even with the metro nearby. And the noise level? Forget peaceful evenings. I thought there'd be more green spaces or a calmer vibe. Honestly, it feels like I traded some 'heritage' for constant honking and inflated prices. Is this just the new normal for central BLR, or did I have unrealistic expectations? Change my mind.
