Many students, a bit messy but the atmosphere is good!

We regularly have trouble with full rubbish bins, causing rubbish bags to be left on the street, and I see in the neighbourhood app that there are issues with stolen packages from delivery services (although I think this is due to the residential building). Furthermore, the area buzzes with students and families and the atmosphere is mostly good, though sometimes noisy.

Green, Good accessibility & Cosy

Strikingly lots of green, very well accessible from main roads and motorways, walking & cycling or by public transport/car to city+shops and also health centres in a nice location/distance from home.
