Atmospheric neighbourhood with nice neighbours. Houses with a stately character interspersed with smaller workers' cottages. You can feel the history, you can walk straight into the city centre.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's fine to live here, as long as you stay in your own house. There are huge drug problems in the neighbourhood and cars speed by. So cats can't safely go outside either.
