Small and remote

It's a fine neighbourhood, only the neighbours further down the street complain very quickly.

Quiet

It's a quiet neighbourhood. The roads are quiet and everyone is busy with their own thing. There aren't many amenities in the area, so having a car is a must. Otherwise, the nature is very beautiful, though it's a shame about the wind turbines and factories further away.

A neighbourhood with potential

The neighbourhood has a lot of litter, poorly maintained houses. And a district under construction that is slowly progressing; also, with the arrival of the temporary homes, a certain stain has come to the area. This is because the people living there have a mindset of 'this is not my home' and are already very dissatisfied with everything, causing them to leave a lot of rubbish lying around. Or cause nuisance in other ways. Furthermore, the district, with its adjacent nature reserve and history, has a lot of potential to become a model neighbourhood. But to get there, a lot more is needed.

I think it's okay ..

I think it's okay, but I understand that people might say there's too little. But there's enough for me. There's a little shop, a pub and a football club. When I was young, 13 or so, there was even an ice rink.

Everything you need in one place.

Everything is nice and close, direct connection to the city by train, hotel, spa, hairdresser, clothing store, toy store, hardware store and a supermarket all within walking distance. A market every Friday and a fair every year. Plenty of bins everywhere, and I only have good memories of the primary school here.
