All necessary amenities within walking distance of both bustle and tranquillity. (Shops, museums and nature). Plenty of choice in eateries and sufficient activities or events. There are enough patrols by police and community wardens, quite a few primary schools in the city centre and sufficient choice of secondary education in the suburbs. A beautiful location with city walls, monuments and parks in the suburbs. For the rest, plenty of shops and a weekly market in the centre and shopping centres in the suburbs. Easily accessible due to the central location in the country thanks to the motorway junction. In addition, a train and bus station and also accessible by water via the ferry services.
Auto-translated to English by AIMy experience with the neighbourhood is good, I've only been living here for 3 weeks but I'm extremely pleased.
Auto-translated to English by AIvery nice cosy neighbourhood that really gets into the holidays. everything is within walking distance. you can't do anything about the people but we've been lucky with that. the only dangerous thing is a bend in the street that lorries can't take properly, so cars often get smashed up. more colour and plants would be nice. especially plants make it so much nicer and cosier.
Auto-translated to English by AIAll necessary shops, restaurants, terraces nearby. Also beautiful city walls, buildings and plenty of space to relax, especially by the river with beaches. Lots of activities, culture, culinary and festivals. Train, buses, ferries within walking distance. Most amenities are present, vacant shops are limited and many independent shops instead of large corporations.
