Messy little neighbourhood

Don't think the neighbourhood is clean and too many immigrants together in one area and police regularly appear, that's not for nothing

The neighbourhood was once much better

Living in this neighbourhood for over 35 years and have seen a lot of negative changes over the years. It was always a peculiar neighbourhood in many respects. But there was still something like a sense of community. But now that everyone is more to themselves and has less (good) contact with neighbours, my feeling of safety has noticeably decreased.

Visibly deteriorating

In the past the neighbourhood was cleaner and people maintained the front gardens and pavements better, also the children just throw everything on the street
