Very good · 2 residents
We regularly have trouble with full rubbish bins, causing rubbish bags to be left on the street, and I see in the neighbourhood app that there are issues with stolen packages from delivery services (although I think this is due to the residential building). Furthermore, the area buzzes with students and families and the atmosphere is mostly good, though sometimes noisy.
Auto-translated to English by AIStrikingly lots of green, very well accessible from main roads and motorways, walking & cycling or by public transport/car to city+shops and also health centres in a nice location/distance from home.
