Auto-translated to English by AIToo bad we don't have nice neighbours. That sometimes makes me sad. A few years ago they hung our dog. And a friend was spat on and beaten with a dog leash until she bled. Then I think why. Why do they do that. I have no idea. Stadlander also says the light is not on you. But I'm still bothered by it.
Auto-translated to English by AINice neighbourhood, many schools nearby, never been burgled, never experienced nuisance, child-friendly, friendly people, plenty of supermarkets in the area. Nice football club, little trouble, good hygiene. Often cleaned by the municipality. Nice forest where you can play with your children and take walks.
