Although the neighborhoods that lie northeast of the river (Butel, Čair/Çair, Gazi Baba, Suto Orizari) have mixed populations including representatives of the Turkish and Roma minorities, they tend to be associated with the Albanians.... Some people who used to live in the historically mixed area of Čair/Çair may have moved either to Butel (further North)"
