Auto-translated to English by AIIt's a decent neighbourhood with plenty of parks and other amenities. However, there are quite a few problems in the area, such as nuisance and dangerous people who harass you. Additionally, it's often dirty because rubbish isn't collected often enough. Despite all this, I'm quite satisfied with living in this neighbourhood.

Auto-translated to English by AIIf something ever goes wrong, it's not immediately 'yes police', but we usually talk it out among ourselves. We trust each other that someone won't immediately be reported if, for example, they make noise. Usually we just address the neighbour directly instead of making a big deal out of it.
