Good, it's a large neighbourhood where we can find everything, everything is close by
Auto-translated to English by AIMulticultural neighbourhood, lots of shops, very diverse, nice walking environment. Close to public transport. Lots of greenery in the area, near a large park. I don't feel unsafe in the neighbourhood, but I wouldn't go for a walk in the middle of the night. Otherwise a pleasant neighbourhood.
