Bad and very unsafe neighbourhood.

I have only had bad experiences with the neighbourhood. And it is very unsafe because of drug addicts. And the municipality does nothing except point fingers at each other. The community is also nothing, we have very little greenery. Only accessible by car. And furthermore no public transport nearby and no shops in the area.

Unsafe and bad

The neighbourhood is unsafe due to a heavy drug addict. And nothing is being done about it. Only could be better. People are strange and the facilities could be much better. There is little greenery. Only accessibility is not good. Except by car.

Bad

Neighbourhood is not safe. And the residents are a bunch of whiners. And my upstairs neighbour terrorises the neighbours and the neighbourhood. The drug addict must go. And the neighbourhood police officer should do his job instead of saying sort it out yourself.
