A small, calming neighbourhood

There is a lot of gossip, which usually happens in a village, sometimes things that aren't true. There are a few cafes but nothing is done for the youth, there is only one bus per hour and it's mostly always full in the mornings, there is also one neighbourhood bus to Gemert which is always late or doesn't come.
