It's every man for himself, no cleaning up, just making a mess, not looking out for each other or taking each other into consideration.
Auto-translated to English by AIAll facilities in the neighbourhood, nice neighbours, only shame about the youth causing unrest. And that the youth don't clean up their mess, so very unhygienic in the neighbourhood. Cleaning up a bit works wonders.
Auto-translated to English by AIVery nice neighbours, good contact. Nice by the water. Only the youth is less. Breaking things, noise nuisance, drug bags on the ground (while walking the dog), setting off fireworks, teasing the dog, not cleaning up mess. Green a colourful verge with many poisonous plants for animals and people. Many social housing homes very damp, lots of mould, cracks in the walls, not insulated. Drains always blocked.
Auto-translated to English by AIFriendly people, helpful. Cosy neighbourhood with few parking spaces, shopping centre a 5-minute walk away. Shops with a nice variety. Fairly green, the municipality is doing its best.
