Auto-translated to English by AIIt's a neighbourhood you really have to get used to. Little contact with neighbours. Green neighbourhood. On the edge of the village. The nature is beautiful. Supermarket is within walking distance. The village could be a bit cosier.
Auto-translated to English by AIAbsolutely great
Auto-translated to English by AIDuring the day, many people are at work. School and shops nearby. Nice neighbourhood association on our street. Friendly people.
Auto-translated to English by AIThe courtyard where I live is a fine courtyard. The row where I live is cosy; in summer we sit with the neighbours I have contact with in the front garden at the other neighbour's house. My children also like it here.
Auto-translated to English by AIThe village is very dead, there are no shops and there is one secondary school that has no exam classes and at the primary school you have 3 different classes in one room. You really see no one outside and it is abnormally boring.
