Lage Mors: a mixed neighbourhood
Lage Mors is a neighbourhood with a mix of ages and household types, where single-person households make up nearly half of all homes. The one review on, based on a single resident's experience, is critical: "Going downhill fast," the resident says, adding that "nobody considers others anymore" and that maintenance by the municipality and of private gardens is "very poor." It is a candid view of the Lage Mors neighbourhood, and one worth weighing alongside the practical benefits of the area.
