Was a nice neighbourhood

The neighbourhood used to be a very nice neighbourhood, but an awful lot has changed. Maintenance work is being carried out on the houses at the moment, but unfortunately the neighbourhood is deteriorating more and more. Decline is noticeable in all sorts of ways.

Safe and pleasant environment

Great neighbourhood, little crime. The community is good among themselves but there is little that is organised by the neighbourhood. Nice atmosphere and good appearance.
