Shopping and transport facilities are still underdeveloped, but this should change in the next few years.

The Cessange neighborhood offers a bucolic setting for families. The neighborhood is in the immediate vicinity of Findel airport's overhead lines, but suffers little from them due to the height of the aircraft at this level.
