Safe and close-knit neighbourhood

Living in this neighbourhood is a wonderful experience. It's clean, safe, and there are many child-friendly parks where you always see happy children playing. What makes it truly special is the strong sense of community. The neighbours are warm and friendly, I know everyone on my street and there's always a smile or a greeting. When I'm working in my front garden, people often stop to say hello and have a chat. It's a place where you truly feel connected and at home.

Very selfish citizens!!!!!

Now, heavy tree felling, I was against it! In connection with climate change, to stop tree felling and not to mention clean air in the neighbourhood. Traffic, increased a lot over the years! If a resident was parked in a parking space, please remove the car! There was a move, long-term parking in front of my house (without my permission!) Anonymous notes distributed in the past about dog walking nuisance, cats visiting front gardens, cat poop. Bird poop, don't put food in the birdhouse, you get bird poop! After my husband's death, I received a flower wreath in my bin (unbelievable, right?) So, I could go on for a while!

A quiet neighbourhood

Children play enough, but there isn't much contact between residents apart from the neighbourhood BBQ that was organised recently.
