Overall, it's a quiet neighbourhood. There is a dangerous road nearby where many cars drive too fast and accidents often happen. The houses are now divided between owner-occupied and rental. But all rental houses that become vacant are sold. As a result, you can see the neighbourhood gradually improving because people with owner-occupied homes put more time and energy into it. A fine neighbourhood for a family with children. Downside: the green bags are often torn open, causing a lot of litter to scatter around and not being collected by the council. Hygiene could be better. There should be bins everywhere so that bags of rubbish don't end up on the street.
