My neighbourhood is always very friendly, except for a few. However, there are only a few facilities for children. There are plenty of shops in the area, but elsewhere there is very little to do. There is only one small nature area nearby, and I find that a shame because I always enjoy a nice walk in the neighbourhood. I hope more green spaces can be added to the district. I also notice that since the hedges in the back gardens have disappeared and been replaced with fences, fewer and fewer birds are flying through the neighbourhood. I find that a shame too.

Auto-translated to English by AIA real working-class neighbourhood. People are there for each other when something happens. Too bad there are too few rubbish bins near, for example, apartment buildings. There are cigarette butts everywhere.
