Lived here my whole life

I think it falls under the middle class. There are mainly terraced houses and some - not too tall - apartment blocks. There is a nice shopping centre, and I hope the vacant shops will be filled. Generally, there is little contact between neighbours, but you do get greeted. Currently, a lot is being done in the neighbourhood to make it even nicer and more pleasant, which is good. A 10-minute walk from the meadows, so walking is also enjoyable here.
