Had a fantastic time staying in Meranti for many years. Quiet buildings overlooking gardens or the golf course, they're perfect for families with its low density. The solitude and peacefulness was excellent, especially when you have peace of mind with your safety.

Cleanliness was not fantastic -- roads were great, and gardens/parks kept clean, but the cockroach infestations were horrendous. As expected of an older property close to nature, unfortunately. Small baby cockroaches every other day in your kitchen and toilets even with frequent pest control.
The only traffic issues with Meranti would be through the back road past the high school after working hours and when the students finish school. Otherwise, it's very accessible and easy to get around.
