The Grou neighbourhood
Grou is a village with a strong sense of community, though one long-term resident notes: "Was very good but nowadays it's going downhill due to various moves of some addresses and replaced by people who, partly due to drug use, make a mess of it, it's not getting any better." Based on one review, this is a personal perspective. The neighbourhood has a mix of ages, with many older residents and a fair share of families. For more details, see the Grou neighbourhood.
