Auto-translated to English by AIyo your beloved Frederik here with another review. this area is pretty good man, it's quiet, only about 3 people live there and no blacks or Turks so no problem. there is a secret cocaine lab underneath so it's a bit risky but otherwise chill. education is mediocre man because there are only 3 people. you can't do a damn thing in this area. community is basically not applicable, it's 3 people who are inbred. cheers, Frederik

Auto-translated to English by AIIt is a fairly quiet neighbourhood but it has also known other times. In terms of greenery, only ugly shrubs have been planted by the municipality.
Auto-translated to English by AINice neighbourhood to live in, lots of space and greenery. Unfortunately few amenities and a secondary school and train station are an hour's bike ride away. There is a well-connected bus station though. The neighbourhood is safe but cars drive fast. Also clean except for occasional mud.
