Auto-translated to English by AIThe neighbourhood is a backstreet and working-class area and ordinary people, gossip and backbiting are part of it; if they have nothing to tell / know about you, they'll make it up. Unreliable too, they say one thing to you and to someone else they say the opposite. If they're from the church, you have two types: one type you can 100% rely on and trust, the other type puts on a nice face and tries to pull the wool over your eyes, and they've had neighbours and friends write positive reviews on Google and co. You're on your own here, and only when they can profit from you are they sweet and kind.

Auto-translated to English by AIThere have been some thefts at our apartment complex, so I don't really feel safe. The people around us are generally nice, but there are a few bad apples.
Auto-translated to English by AIJust a super nice village. I know I have to tell everything in detail here, but it's just nice here.
