Very nice neighbourhood, just less nice people in my opinion

Actually always fine. Never had any problems here; if you come here, it's for the peace and quiet. There's not much to do here. I myself hope to see more facilities for children between 15 and 22; for this age group there is absolutely nothing here. Other than that, a nice neighbourhood, just grumpy old people; otherwise a very nice neighbourhood.

Pleasant

It's a very pleasant neighbourhood to live in. The neighbours are very friendly, everyone knows each other so it's very cosy. Sometimes there is a bit of nuisance at the bus shelter at the weekend, but that usually passes within a few minutes. Other than that, the neighbourhood is very clean and there are quite a lot of amenities nearby.
