developed rural

The most recent data we have available indicates that this area is relatively sparsely populated, with 1551 people living in the neighbourhood.

While population density on its own doesn't mean a huge deal, a relatively sparsely populated area should mean that you're unlikely to experience too many issues like noise or congestion caused by local traffic. However, it also might mean that certain services and facilities are less accessible, or located further away in more built-up areas.
