bad

worthless, I've been harassed at my front door for years. there have been years of arguments in my hallway that I couldn't handle, the police and housing association were involved, I was supposed to get help which didn't happen. now I have a new person living next to me who is off his head and has a mess in his house. and harasses me in the middle of the night. he drinks and does things. which is not pleasant. but the housing association doesn't do a damn thing. so now I'm looking for another home, which the housing association was supposed to help me with but now they're leaving me to sort it out myself. to get away, this world is bloody crap

Unpredictable

I personally have a good experience with my neighbourhood. Nothing to complain about. Yes, here and there some hassle but that's always the case. Getting a house, on the other hand, is a DRAMA. We as 20/30-year-olds still all live with our parents because there simply ARE NO houses. Or the houses are being snatched away for refugees or status holders.. Not fair.
