Another is far less positive, describing "lots of 'gangsters', lots of mess" and a lack of social cohesion. Based on two reviews, it's clearly a place with strong contrasts. The area is densely built up, with mostly flats and a mix of ages, many young adults and families.

Auto-translated to English by AILots of “gangsters”, lots of mess. People are not social, landlord does nothing about things in the house. In short, just a shit neighbourhood.
