Auto-translated to English by AII live on a street where nobody watches out for each other, but it's clean and has a lot of greenery, only my house is worthless. I've had a leak in my bedroom for years, the balcony has been on steel pillars for 8 years, no double glazing, very hot in summer and freezing cold in winter. And the housing association does nothing.
