Auto-translated to English by AIThere are confused people living in the neighbourhood, who no longer make the street pleasant. Why aren't they being helped? We used to have such a nice street. Get support services involved, not the police, and cameras would be desirable against unsafe situations and burglaries.
Auto-translated to English by AIPeople keep to themselves a lot. Shutters closed early, and a hello is barely possible. Cars are sometimes parked antisocially. We do accept parcels for each other. It's a mixed company: Dutch, Polish, Turkish. Owner-occupied and rental properties mixed together, poorly maintained houses, gates have weeds a metre high, bulky household waste is regularly dumped.
