A pleasant living environment, quiet

We live with a view of the ponds, no noise. Forest nearby for lovely walks. Also pleasant walking at the canoe pond for a short round. Plenty of parking space. Schools nearby and supermarket within walking distance. Lots of greenery in the neighbourhood. Neat neighbourhood, safe living, no nuisance. City centre easily accessible by bike or car.

Quiet neighbourhood

We've lived here for a very long time and have no plans to move. Lovely people in the neighbourhood, except for a few, haha.

It's every man for himself.

People don't really think about each other. Some neighbourhoods have barbecues, but we don't. Sometimes you have a chat with each other. But here you say a quick hi and then everyone goes back to their own business. There is a neighbourhood supermarket, and the centre is only a 10-minute bike ride away. During the day you can walk the streets alone just fine, but I wouldn't do that at night. I personally have been chased several times by people who probably wanted to scare me.
