Auto-translated to English by AII have lived in Malden Oost my whole life, and have always enjoyed it. You have everything in the neighbourhood, which is perfect.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's far from the larger centre. Always long journeys. No supermarket or anything. But a cosy neighbourhood. Snug, you know many people. Safety is good. It's not too densely populated.
Auto-translated to English by AIToo much buzzing here in a place where children play. Too much litter that also doesn't get cleaned up. Below, rental homes meant for families are too often given to single people. And families living above are left there and aren't offered the downstairs homes as a swap..
