Neighbours are good. But for elderly with limited mobility, few shops and banks

I think the neighbourhood is good. Good contact with the neighbours. The immediate neighbours look out for each other. Only a lot of burglaries in the area. Primary school nearby. I enjoy living here. Now waiting, I'm getting 30 apartments next to me, let's see how that goes regarding nuisance... I like living here. The neighbourhood has nice people who, like me, have lived here for years. We help each other when needed, including the neighbours at the back. Facilities are not good for elderly people. They can't get money from the bank nearby. They always need someone with a car. No consideration is given to them, which I think is a real shame.
