This month's picture · written by AI from the figures on this pageΗ Αγία Βαρβάρα είναι πυκνοκατοικημένη γειτονιά της Αττικής με χαρακτήρα μεταφορών και αποθηκών, όπου τα καταστήματα είναι λιγότερα από όσα συνηθίζονται στην περιοχή, με 50,0 ανά χίλιους κατοίκους. Ξεχωρίζουν οι υπηρεσίες delivery, ενώ σπανίζουν σιδηρικά, φροντιστήρια, έπιπλα, συνεργεία και κοσμηματοπωλεία. Αξίζει μια πιο προσεκτική ματιά στα περίπτερα και τα ψιλικά, που δείχνουν ιδιαίτερη ζωντάνια.
