Nice neighbourhood, not very clean

I live in a cosy neighbourhood where people are friendly and there's always something to do. The atmosphere is pleasant, neighbours greet each other, and there's often life on the street. There are also nice playgrounds and small shops in the area, which makes it a nice place to live. What is a shame, though, is that the neighbourhood isn't always very clean. There is regularly rubbish on the street and some spots aren't well maintained. That's sometimes a pity, because it brings down the nice appearance of the neighbourhood a bit. Overall, I still think it's a nice neighbourhood to live in, especially because of the people and the cosy atmosphere. If it were a bit cleaner, it would be really perfect!
