How residents experience their neighbourhood
I've been living in Houtwijk for a while now and overall I'm very satisfied with the neighbourhood. What I particularly experience as positive are the people here. The neighbours are friendly and helpful, and there is a pleasant atmosphere on the street. The area is also clean and well-maintained, which gives a nice and cared-for feeling. Moreover, it feels very safe here; I feel at ease in the surroundings at any time of day. What I find less pleasant is the accessibility of Houtwijk by public transport. There are buses and trams, but the service is limited and connections to other parts of the city are sometimes a bit cumbersome or time-consuming. This makes it difficult for people without a car to get to other places quickly. All in all, I think Houtwijk is a nice and quiet place to live, especially because of the friendly neighbours, the cleanliness and the feeling of safety. Hopefully public transport will be better organised in the future.
Auto-translated to English by AIEveryone is always open for a chat, the neighbours look out for each other. All amenities are close by. Actually, this is the perfect neighbourhood. Everyone neatly cleans up the mess on the street, the houses are beautiful and well-insulated, green spaces are next to the centre which is also nice and spacious. Moreover, there is plenty to do for the children. Accessibility by both public transport and car is fine.

How residents experience their district
I am very satisfied
Auto-translated to English by AIMany fatbikers who run you over or knock the creases out of your trousers, there still needs to be more enforcement on that. Cars racing through the street as if it's Zandvoort! Shared scooters parked everywhere on the pavement. Many residents here are visually impaired; this is simply life-threatening for this group. A trip by ambulance to the hospital costs more than parking that scooter somewhere safe. The housing corporations need to better maintain/insulate the homes for the exorbitant rent they charge! The trees in the street need to be pruned/trimmed. On a gloomy day, we have the lights on by 3 PM, so high energy bills! More activities should be held in the shopping centre. The rents for the shop premises are far too high, there is a lot of vacancy!
Auto-translated to English by AII have nice neighbours and a large, enclosed American-style green garden, which I am very happy with.
