Auto-translated to English by AIOften loitering youths and vandalism during New Year's Eve with fireworks. Not a pleasant neighbourhood to live in, few facilities for the community, for children, young people and the elderly. It would be nice if more were organised within the community, and if people could get in touch with each other in a more positive way. The neighbourhoods could do with a lot more greenery!! Outside the neighbourhood there is fortunately a nice piece of estate and forest, but now there is also dissatisfaction about that because there are building plans there.
