The Hooch Boulandt neighbourhood
Based on one review, the area is described as "a quiet part of a busy neighbourhood." The resident notes that the streets between the Singel and the railway are very quiet and peaceful, though there are few cafés so little sense of community. Shops are easily reached on foot, but walking from the central station at night can feel scary due to dark parks and empty offices. The Singel itself offers nice greenery for running.

For primary schools, the Agatha Snellenschool and Openbare Basisschool De Kleine Dichter are both a five-minute walk. The area is very urban, with a high density of addresses.
