Auto-translated to English by AIWhen I first moved here, I thought, oh nice, a nice quiet neighbourhood, but that quickly faded. I myself have aggressive neighbours who throw their joints everywhere and just move your things without asking. Way too many loitering youths in the area, they terrorise the shopping centre every evening, and there's just nothing fun here. It's dirty everywhere, there's litter and rubbish, and it just stinks.
Auto-translated to English by AIYou can't sleep well here because of all the cars racing through the neighbourhood, and every month a corpse is found in the canal, which makes me and my family feel less safe, and that's really quite annoying. I think the location also plays a part; two streets away from me, drug deals happen more often.
Auto-translated to English by AIThere are many loitering youths in the neighbourhood, but recently they have been behaving reasonably. There is plenty for the children to do and there is a bit of greenery everywhere. The education is reasonable and at a good distance.
