I really enjoy living here, I've only been living here for a short while. But strangely enough, I don't really feel very safe or anything. Maybe because I've been living here for 3 weeks and my license plates were already stolen.. oh well. The accessibility is okay but there are a lot of one-way streets which is a bit annoying because you have to take a detour. You have to pay for parking almost everywhere, so that's a bit of a downside. On the other hand, there are many shops and facilities within easy reach. And there are nice parks and bits of nature. There are many different cultures in one city.
