No planet in that celestial neighborhood would enjoy a night-time. Too many suns in every direction.

I would think that planets would be pretty unlikely in that neighborhood. The gravitational forces would be pulling every which way. Maybe a planet could orbit a star or stars in the outer fringes.

My vision of a planet orbiting a red dwarf that in turn orbits a sunlike star at about the same distance as our asteroid belt.
