The Station neighbourhood
The Station neighbourhood is a lively, urban area with a strong sense of density. The address density is high, reflecting the compact, city-centre feel. Most households are single people, making up 66% of the population, and the average household size is just 1.5. One resident review gives the area a score of 8 out of 10, though it notes: "Not enough bicycle parking. Often theft, 6 bikes stolen within a year. Often there is (bulky) waste around the containers. Lots of noise at night, especially during holidays and festivals. The house shakes when a train passes by. 3 floors and no lift." This is based on a single review, so it reflects one person's experience.
