2) Fill in the gaps with words from the box.

Last year, we moved to a new house on the outskirts of town. Living away from
the city centre is OK, but I sometimes miss my old neighbourhood. There was a
lively atmosphere with people doing shopping or tourists visiting the main sights. I
used to like meeting new people from all walks of life.
However, I must admit that the peace in the new area is priceless. In my old
apartment, we lived on top of each other and it was overcrowded. This area is free
of crime whereas in the city centre crime is on the increase.
So I think the benefits outnumber the downsides; I guess I will get used to living in
the suburbs soon!
