I have lived here for 24 years and love the cosiness. Too bad I experience a lot of nuisance from the fair and some events; besides the noise and the rubbish left behind, it is a magnet for rioting youths who fight full-scale battles among themselves and with the police. Nowadays, camera surveillance and a large police force are needed to make it somewhat normal, with varying success.
