Very cosy, quiet and a beautiful environment
Auto-translated to English by AINeighbours often argue with their families and shout outside, there's also a lot of renovation going on in the area from early to late, and sometimes strange people hang around the supermarket when it starts to get darker. The buses, metros and train are all nearby, but it's a shame that bus 77 is gone, because now I have to walk quite far to get there. There isn't much nature, since I live almost in the middle of the city. Walking to the metros is also quite a distance. Besides that, I find my neighbourhood very nice. I feel safe and at ease.
Auto-translated to English by AIThe lift is always broken…….and left dirty. Neighbours are okay, not much communication but there is a bit of noise now and then. I feel safe in my neighbourhood. There aren't really any nice playgrounds nearby, which is a shame…
