People keep to themselves. Difficult to make contact if you're not from the village. During the festival week the contact is better and we have a neighbourhood app.
Auto-translated to English by AIThe neighbours in the area are typical people who are entitled to a "social housing" home. They are loud, meddle a lot with their neighbours, have many children and big cars but still receive benefits. Additionally, they complain about other neighbours' gardens (who are just working all day long). Weed is also smoked in the neighbourhood, causing your house to constantly smell of the neighbours' weed, even with the window closed. That is very annoying. Otherwise, everything in the neighbourhood is nearby; there is a supermarket, a butcher, walking parks and paths, etc.
