Auto-translated to English by AINot very involved with each other, almost no contact, little knowledge of each other. There are enough schools and playgrounds here, you have enough facilities to suit your lifestyle, safe enough, fortunately little happens here. You can easily get to your home here. Too bad so much greenery is being removed. The hard driving, couldn't the streets be made one-way?
