Auto-translated to English by AII was born here, the neighbourhood has changed a lot in the past 34 years. In the past, people helped each other, now many divorced people. Greetings are no longer possible, and the biggest problem is the parking issues! And always noise from school, renovations, barking dogs, crying children.
