"I would say that there's no community spirit. I would like to see the surroundings more pleasant and inviting. There's not even a single bench for the people to sit on or an area for the children to play on"
Just posted some of the sound bites, of things that the people in the area said they'd want to see. The overall feeling is that there is a lack of facilities for children.
