A cosy neighbourhood that welcomes new residents with open arms
Auto-translated to English by AIDue to roadworks, everything is poorly accessible at the moment, making it difficult to sometimes park the car or even the bike. Also, there are many raised stones on the pavement due to tree roots, and since many elderly people live here, it is a serious tripping hazard.
