More people live here and also different people at the same addresses who simply don't belong here. It's very noisy and the nuisance has increased." That's just one review, but it paints a picture of a changing area.

I've lived here for 14 years, very special because my father was born on this street. But in recent years the neighbourhood has deteriorated. They gave it a makeover but that doesn't improve anything. More people live here and also different people at the same addresses who simply don't belong here. It's very noisy and the nuisance has increased.
