Beautiful neighbourhood

I have beautiful and less beautiful experiences. Too many outsiders are placed, sorry but it doesn't give a safe feeling. The little park is nice and pleasant for walking, but it's also an escape route. Install more cameras.

Perfect and nice neighbourhood

It's very easy to get to shops from the neighbourhood. Everyone is friendly, almost no crime and very cosy everywhere.

Fine

It's a nice neighbourhood to live in. The only pity is that nothing has been created for children on the square. Otherwise, we have everything we need in the neighbourhood. GP, pharmacy, supermarket, etc. It's just a short walk to the centre. But I find it terrible that, especially in summer, the council only collects the bins every other week.
