Quiet neighbourhood. Lots of nice people and I always feel safe. I just miss a football pitch or something. Somewhere where the youngsters can play football/basketball and so on. Supermarket nearby (Lidl) and a shopping centre within cycling distance. Beach not too far away either, and the city too. Actually just a really lovely neighbourhood!
