good living

only it's getting too busy on the street, 4200 cars per day, so fine dust. otherwise it's very pleasant living here, only it used to be cosier, when only Didamers of Diemse origin lived here, now everyone is moving in, including people who are actually hard to place

A fine neighbourhood all around

It's a great neighbourhood for families with young children, but for older children there is very little to do in the village.
