A quiet neighbourhood

It's quite quiet here. We have a small shopping centre but you can find almost everything you need. It's not far from the city and the transport is also optimal for such a small village.

Quiet, cosy, safe neighbourhood

It'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.

Quiet neighbourhood

Too 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..
