Most households are single people (245 out of 345), and there are very few families with children (20 households). The average household size is 1.4, so it is a place of singles and couples rather than families.
The nearest park or public garden is 1.7 km away. This is a very dense, built-up part of the city centre, so green space is limited. For a larger park, you would need to walk a bit further, but the city's canals and streets offer their own kind of urban scenery.
