Auto-translated to English by AIPeople don't really think about each other. Some neighbourhoods have barbecues, but we don't. Sometimes you have a chat with each other. But here you say a quick hi and then everyone goes back to their own business. There is a neighbourhood supermarket, and the centre is only a 10-minute bike ride away. During the day you can walk the streets alone just fine, but I wouldn't do that at night. I personally have been chased several times by people who probably wanted to scare me.
Auto-translated to English by AIThe housing stock is mainly post-war — 54% was built between 1945 and 1990.
