It's not the worst neighbourhood, but certainly not the best either. It's easily accessible thanks to the bus stop and there is a primary school. The area doesn't feel very safe, but things are regularly organised in the neighbourhood. It's also quite green because of the surrounding forests, including the Brunssummerheide. The housing is good, but it depends on which part of the neighbourhood you're in. It's a fairly dirty neighbourhood, not much attention is paid to hygiene. It's not very safe either, but it's not unsafe either; furthermore, it has all the facilities you need: clothing shops, supermarket, hairdresser, etc.
