Very good, the sense of community is also great. If you want to see people, you can just pop in at the neighbours for a coffee or a chat. When you walk down the street, you always run into someone for a chat. But if you don't feel like it, that's fine too. I feel safe in this village and in this community. Everywhere around our house there is greenery and a wide view. A community centre that runs well in autumn and winter, including darts and cloverleaf competitions. More houses should be built, especially for the young people who say they want to keep living in the village. Accessibility could also be better; if you have a car, there's no problem, but if you have to rely on public transport, you're in trouble.
