Mariaberg
Mariaberg is a cosy, old-fashioned working-class neighbourhood, according to the two residents who reviewed it. One resident describes it as "cosy", with a friendly atmosphere and high social control, and notes that the small streets and little traffic make it safe for children.

The same resident points out that parking is lacking, and that rubbish collection could be more frequent. Overall, the Mariaberg neighbourhood comes across as a place with a strong community feel, though not without its quirks.
