Awful

Nasty atmosphere. Not many nice people. Lots of aggression, bullying, etc. Swearing for no reason. I avoid the residents here as much as possible and don't greet anyone either. Annoying school. But my house is very beautiful.

Not for everyone

I live in a child-friendly neighbourhood but children are sent away from the street by residents who live in a small apartment block that was added much later.

Cosy working-class neighbourhood

Lots of trees, rustling leaves, a pleasant walk along the pond. A quick greeting, a chat with a neighbour. Quickly on the bike to pick up a forgotten item. Another familiar face in the shop. How's it going?

Nice quiet neighbourhood near the city beach

I really enjoy living here. It's within walking distance of Lidl and Aldi. I also like going to the city beach and doing my workouts at the calisthenics park near DOT. I feel very safe in the neighbourhood. There are some students living behind who can make noise until late in the evening, but I don't mind that. Otherwise, I live with many young working people in the apartment complex. All in all, very satisfied. You can definitely live here!!
