How residents experience their municipality
We really enjoy living here. Close to schools and shops. Everything within walking distance. Weed maintenance could be better but not bothersome. This is our little spot.

Auto-translated to English by AIIt's a beautiful neighbourhood with lots of greenery. 2 nice primary schools, but only 1 secondary school in the area for the first 2 years. Very clean neighbourhood. There are few amenities in the area, there are playgrounds but no small supermarket or shop. It is easily accessible to the motorway and other shops in the centre.
