Perfect for professional commuters, normally quiet place and very practical to get anywhere in no time. Right amount of places around to visit and explore.

Used to be a nice place, now crime is getting higher, and nobody cares as usual. Definitely not a safe place, plenty of roberies attempts from people with bikes etc...
