Lots of poverty and loitering youths but also kind people trying to make the most of life. Education should be more mixed, not too much of the same. Lots of green in the neighbourhood and a riding school, sports activities.
Auto-translated to English by AIGenerally fine to live in. It's well located, you can cycle to the city centre or take the bus to metro 52. There's a shopping centre nearby. There's enough green space in the area, but it could be more. Occasionally some issues with loitering youths or other shady characters. Lots of screaming/shouting children or parties at Koopvaardersplantsoen, which is often annoying. There's not really a community, at least I don't feel it, but that might be because I live in the only block of new-build houses and most people come from the flats. However, little is done to foster community either. Lots of rubbish on the street/next to the bins.
