There is a petting zoo, a school, a daycare, and I've lived there my whole life and my grandparents live there too. It's cosy, I went to school there, also to daycare, and as a child I often went to the petting zoo with my grandpa. My friends also live nearby. It just feels very much like home. The only thing is that there aren't enough houses available, in my opinion; they're never for sale.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's quiet here and that's nice, but sometimes a bit too quiet. There are too few things to do or places to go.
Auto-translated to English by AIThe neighbourhood is super nice, I grew up there and we never moved. Education was good and there is a shop so you can do groceries nearby. Unfortunately not many facilities and after that shop it pretty much stops. Two primary schools so enough space for education. Also, housing could be better.
Auto-translated to English by AINice people, beautiful houses, but a busy road because it's the through road towards Germany. Green due to the trees.
