But don't you think living in the center is better for any kind of social live?

Yes definitly. But trafic is terible and if you have to go to work every day and return through thsi it is a night mare! Socially speacking after the traphic has pased in evenings and weekk ends it will take you 20 to 30 minuts to get to the center and other areas. I always belive personally living near work so I reduce stress an hazle. Plus it save s money in transport. You can do it all the way around.
