We live in a nice neighbourhood, sometimes there's a bit of trouble but where isn't there. Lovely house, nice neighbours and everything is easily accessible. In our flat we help each other when needed and there's also social control. We're having a great time here.
Auto-translated to English by AIWe have shops, a tram and other businesses in the neighbourhood, such as a gym to provide for us. There are many trees and nature here, which makes it very quiet. Only it is often dirty and dull-coloured buildings that made the neighbourhood a bit boring.
