Safe and surrounded by nature

A bit of noise sometimes, but it's a beautiful neighbourhood with many trees and a playground for the little ones. I just feel safe, while some people would say the area is very unsafe, I totally disagree with that; in the city centre it feels much less safe to me. In any case, I am happy with this environment and this beautiful house.
