Quiet to live in

Good contacts with the neighbours next door and behind, occasionally with others on the street and across the street. 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.
