One resident does add a caveat: the municipality, in their opinion, does not always cooperate with what residents ask for. That is something to keep in mind if you have plans that depend on municipal cooperation, such as an extension or a driveway.
Social cohesion in the neighbourhood is strong. One resident writes that people greet each other, show concern for one another and organise an annual neighbour get-together on the street.
