A mix of many cultures

Little greenery, often a lot of rubbish. But there are good small businesses and supermarkets in the neighbourhood.

Nice place to live with lots of greenery

Beautiful neighbourhood, all amenities around the corner. Loitering youths and hygiene need to be addressed by the municipality.

Nice neighbourhood!

I love this neighbourhood. It's relatively green. Most residents are friendly. Some are very withdrawn and also a few antisocial people who think the neighbourhood belongs to them.
