Crack dealers are a nuisance
Auto-translated to English by AIVery cosy and a neighbourhood with many different cultures that has many nice places to offer. Lots of schools and many nice restaurants and parks. Close to central station but a lot of mess and rarely cleaned. Maybe a cleaning vehicle should come by more often specifically for this neighbourhood.
