One resident describes it as "a nice neighbourhood" but notes safety concerns: "I don't think the neighbourhood is very safe because there have been a few burglaries, and it's not very hygienic either because sometimes a plastic bag blows by and there are a lot of cigarette butts on the ground, but otherwise it is hygienic, there is a lot of greenery which is very nice and it is well maintained. Accessibility is also fine, although recently a road was closed for a year."
For daily groceries, Albert Heijn is just around the corner, with Dekamarkt and Lidl a couple of streets away. There are several primary schools within walking distance: IKC Valeo is a five-minute walk, and OBS de Globe is about the same.
