My neighbourhood doesn't work well together

My experience is: that the people don't get along with each other, don't want to make an effort for each other and don't know how to keep your neighbourhood clean and that is the problem of my neighbourhood

Nice

I really like living in Bos en Lommer, it's easily accessible and close to the centre and my school. I never really feel unsafe, even at night, and there's plenty to do. The only thing I regret is that there isn't much nature in the neighbourhood; I wouldn't quickly go for a nice walk, which I did in Friesland. Also, it's not always very clean, there's a lot of litter on the ground.
