This neighbourhood used to be a deprived area with many problems. Now a lot of new buildings have been built. But behind the walls of the houses, there are still problems. Apart from that, there are many racists living here. The neighbourhood has been nicely renovated and looks better than before. In the meantime, schools have been renovated for the little children.
