Auto-translated to English by AIWe have been living here since February 2023. What stands out is the sense of community in the neighbourhood. A significant number of residents have lived here since it was built. They are open to new residents, who are each warmly welcomed with a flower or plant. There is also a neighbourhood app where useful things are shared. The village where this neighbourhood is located is fairly religious but not extreme. Sunday rest is still noticeably observed. People are not pushy with their faith towards non-believers; there is clearly mutual respect. In the village, it is normal to greet each other even if you don't know one another. This creates a relaxed atmosphere. There is also little to no crime, at least as far as we notice or hear. For the youth, a hangout spot has been set up outside the village centre, which is actually used. The village has a shopping gallery with a supermarket, bakery, butcher, hairdresser, florist, chemist, interior decorator, hairdresser, and family snack bar. There are also two restaurants, a Chinese takeaway, and a pizza/kebab shop. There is also a library and an active club life. There is also a GP out-of-hours centre/pharmacy/physio and fitness centre. The houses are almost all recently built, and the older buildings are either being replaced with new builds or renovated/restored. There are several Christian primary schools and one public primary school in the village. Within the village boundary there is enough green space, and due to the rural location around the village, there is a lot. In short, a wonderful place to live.

In most cases the front gardens look well-maintained. The shopping centre is easily accessible for daily needs, whether on foot, by bike or by car. For families with children, both primary schools are also easily accessible on foot.
Auto-translated to English by AIOur experiences with the neighbourhood are great! Very cosy and pleasant with each other
Auto-translated to English by AIThis is exactly what life in a village should be like. You know your neighbours. The neighbourhood is clean and safe. Nice walking environment and of course fantastic primary schools to go to. For amenities like a supermarket you don't have to go far either. Do you have to go further afield by public transport? Then I wish you good luck, because that is a real pain. Otherwise great :)
