Cozy density

I personally experience little cohesion in the neighbourhood. Nevertheless, it is a cosy spot, lots of nice houses, easily accessible. Just a bit lacking in green & not always very clean.

Nice spot in the city

It's a beautiful location close to the canal and the city centre. But that's about it. Little greenery, sense of community, and often dirty streets.
