A large neighbourhood, difficult to find a house

I've lived there for 5 years, never had any problems, the houses are just a bit old but otherwise everything is fine. There's not much in the community, no cosy things, and there's a school nearby and those youngsters are always smoking weed in the neighbourhood, which is annoying.
