Based on two reviews, residents have mixed feelings: one says, "I really enjoy living here, but I don't really feel very safe, my license plates were stolen within three weeks. The accessibility is okay but there are many one-way streets, and you have to pay for parking almost everywhere. On the other hand, there are many shops and facilities within easy reach, and nice parks and bits of nature." Another simply rates it "Good." The area has a high proportion of single-person households (450 out of 739 homes) and a mix of ages, with many residents between 25 and 45.

I really enjoy living here, I've only been living here for a short while. But strangely enough, I don't really feel very safe or anything. Maybe because I've been living here for 3 weeks and my license plates were already stolen.. oh well. The accessibility is okay but there are a lot of one-way streets which is a bit annoying because you have to take a detour. You have to pay for parking almost everywhere, so that's a bit of a downside. On the other hand, there are many shops and facilities within easy reach. And there are nice parks and bits of nature. There are many different cultures in one city.
