Our big house feels empty now, eyeing Sector 35.

The maintenance of a big house is just too much after a certain age. Our kids are settled, and our old Sector 14 house feels so huge now. My wife and I are seriously looking to downsize, something manageable with an elevator. We're thinking a compact 3BHK, maybe 1200-1400 sqft in a good society. We've been checking out Sector 35, Faridabad. It seems quite established, and the prices aren't completely insane like some other NCR areas. But I'm really worried about the actual daily living experience. Is it safe walking around at night, especially for my wife? Also, how's the water supply situation there? Are power cuts a big issue, or is DG backup generally reliable? What about traffic during peak hours? We want peaceful living, not constant headaches. Any real resident experiences or opinions would be a huge help for us.
