In the courtyard where we live, there are many restaurants that dump their waste in the alleys. That's a shame.' Another adds: 'Street full of shops and cosiness. Nice and bustling sometimes also noisy but that's not the residents' fault haha.' The area is densely populated, with mostly one-person households and a young demographic.
