My Neighborhood
I live in a small neighborhood near the city center. It is not very busy, but it is not very quiet either. There are many apartment buildings and a few small houses. My building has five floors, and I live on the third floor with my family.
There is a supermarket next to my building. My mother goes there every morning to buy fresh bread and milk. Across the street, there is a bakery and a pharmacy. On Saturdays, there is a small market in the square. People buy fruit and vegetables there.
There is a park behind my house. It has a playground and some benches. Children play football there in the afternoon. I sometimes go to the park with my little brother. We like to ride our bikes.
My school is about fifteen minutes away on foot. I usually walk to school with my best friend, Leo. There is also a bus stop near my house, so people can go to the city center easily.
I like my neighborhood because it is friendly. My neighbors say hello and sometimes help each other. However, there is no cinema or big shopping mall here. For that, we need to go to the city center.
