Auto-translated to English by AIEveryone knows each other. You can't step out the door without being greeted by the neighbours; it's really a social neighbourhood. It's also beautifully central in the centre of Hoorn, it's truly an open-air museum! It's also a 5-minute walk from 2 parks, so if you're a nature lover, you're in the right place here too. If you're a boating enthusiast, you'll be at the water where you can moor your boat after just a couple of stumbles! So it's an ideal spot.

Experiences from Hoorn
How residents experience their municipality
After living here for 12 years, the neighbourhood is going downhill, especially the street next door where there are many rental homes, many people live who don't treat fellow residents very well. Lots of litter lying around, messy gardens and loud talking, shouting and antisocial fatbike drivers who honk unnecessarily. Also leaving rubbish behind and hoping it will eventually be collected by waste collection services. There are schools but not enough types of education.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's a very nice neighbourhood, everything you need in terms of supermarkets, pharmacies, etc. is within a maximum of 10 minutes by bike and therefore easily accessible. I don't have a lot of contact with my neighbours myself, and there aren't really any neighbourhood barbecues or cosy events/gatherings with the neighbourhood. My parents are a bit better friends with the neighbours. It is a very hygienic neighbourhood. There is a forest in the area, so there is certainly nature, but I do think there is too much manicured nature, which I think is a shame.

Auto-translated to English by AIIt's a beautiful neighbourhood! Cosy streets and nice architecture. Friendly and sociable people live here. Nice and quiet with no through traffic.
Auto-translated to English by AIOften arguments. And in the evening here in the garden, talking increasingly louder until shouting. And if you say something about it, you get a big mouth.
Auto-translated to English by AIA lot of nuisance, especially at night. Loudly talking youths and dealers/cars in the parking lot.. a lot of rubbish on pavements and in bushes.
Auto-translated to English by AII've been living here for almost 10 years and I'm happy here, sometimes things do happen but in which neighbourhood in Kersenboogerd doesn't that happen. Because why is someone arrested in front of my house by undercover police and people in my neighbourhood are always loud and that could be a bit less for me. Other than that, I think it's fine to live here for a few more years.
