It is an ethnically diverse melting pot of a community that boasts an exciting area with lots to offer in terms of arts, sports and shopping.<br \/>\nSome of Canton&#8217;s proud developments are the Chapter Arts Centre which is the oldest independent arts centre in Wales, the Cardiff City stadium\u00a0which plays host to Welsh football on club and international level, and Cowbridge Road which is a shopping hub.<br \/>\nWith so much on offer\u00a0issues inevitably arise.
